Welcome to The Rapid Pull, daily edition, where we provide a quick Biblical interpretations and applications.
This is a ministry of striving for eternity. Looking at the
Statement on Social Justice and the Gospel, available for you to read and sign at statementonsocialjustice .com.
We are looking at article number 7, Salvation. We affirm that salvation is granted by God's grace alone, received through faith alone, in Jesus Christ alone.
Every believer is united to Christ, justified before God and adopted into His family.
Thus, in God's eyes, there is no difference in spiritual value or worth among those who are in Christ.
Further, all who are united to Christ are also united to one another, regardless of age, ethnicity, or sex.
All believers are being conformed to the image of Christ. By God's regenerating and sanctifying grace, all believers will be brought to a final, glorified, sinless state of perfection in the day of Jesus Christ.
We deny that salvation can be received in any other way. We also deny that salvation renders any
Christian free from all remaining sin or immune from even grievous sins in this life.
If we further deny that ethnicity excludes anyone from understanding the gospel, nor does anyone's ethnic or cultural heritage mitigate or remove the duty to repent and believe.
