What does it mean to be saved?

Psalms 25:12

Who, then, is the man that fears the LORD? He will instruct him in the way chosen for him.

Ephesians 2:9 

Not by works, so that no one can boast.

Mark 10:45

For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.”

1 John 1:9

If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness.

Revelation 21:27

Nothing impure will ever enter it, nor will anyone who does what is shameful or deceitful, but only those whose names are written in the Lamb's book of life.

Sin

Cleanse me from my sin, Lord,

Put Thy power within, Lord,

Take me as I am, Lord,

And make me all Thine own.

Keep me day by day, Lord,

Underneath Thy sway, Lord;

Make my heart Thy palace

And Thy royal throne.

Amazed at Jesus

 “When the Lord Jesus comes . . . all the people who have believed will be amazed at Jesus.”

Amazed at Jesus . . . Paul doesn’t measure the joy of encouraging the apostles or embracing our loved ones. If we will be amazed at these, which we certainly will, he does not say. What he does say is that we will be amazed at Jesus.

What we have only seen in our thoughts, we will see with our eyes . . . What we’ve seen in a glimpse, we will then see in full view. And . . . we will be amazed. - Max Lucado
