Wrong. No death, no remission of sin.
Can you show me where it says this in the bible please, written just like that? (above} Thanks
His DEATH saves anyone who calls upon His name
And where does it say this in the Bible? Written like that? (Above)
Christ came exclusively to die on the Cross of Calvary so that those who call upon His name He can bring up to Him.
Not according to Jesus
John 18
Pilate therefore said unto him, Art thou a king then? Jesus answered, Thou sayest that I am a king. To this end was I born, and for this cause came I into the world, that I should bear witness unto the truth. Every one that is of the truth heareth my voice.
While He was here, He never saved anyone.
His miracles, while incredible, never saved anyone.
His healings, while awesome, never saved anyone.
His words, which no other man ever spoke, never saved anyone.
Really?
Luke 7:50 And he said to the woman, Thy faith hath saved thee; go in peace.
Luke 18:42 And Jesus said unto him, Receive thy sight: thy faith hath saved thee.

No, we are saved by the grace of God through faith, through our Lord Jesus Christ! We are then to continue in the goodness of God and live by his will, bare our cross, and endure to the end.
