Religion or Salvation

Religion or Salvation

Religion is what man does for God. Salvation is what God does for man.

“The Lord hath laid on Him the iniquity of us all” (Isaiah 53:6). Religion depends on our behaving. Salvation depends on our believing.

Religion is what man does for God. 

“Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved” (Acts 16:31). Religion is striving for a better attainment. Salvation is secured through a perfect atonement.

“Ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold… but with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot” (1 Peter 1:18-19).

Salvation is what God does for man.

Religion or salvation―which do you have?
