Notice we do not ask the question, “What does a particular church teach about salvation?” The reason for this is that no church has the divine right to teach anything about salvation other than what is revealed in the Bible. Many study their Bibles and twist the scriptures to suit them, and determine this to be the answer to their personal search for salvation. Some say they are saved by the love of God, others by mercy or grace. Some say they are saved by obedience, some by the blood of Christ. Some say they are saved by faith, others by repenting and asking Jesus into their heart. Some require a “spiritual experience” while some believe acknowledge-ment of Jesus as their savior is all that is needed.
