"This is the 'STONE WHICH WAS REJECTED BY YOU BUILDERS, WHICH HAS BECOME THE CHIEF CORNERSTONE.' Nor is there salvation in any other, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved."
—Acts 4:11-12

My Friends…

You are not in the kingdom of Christ because you're a member of Hope Reformed Church or any other church on this earth. If you're trusting in your church membership then you're on your way to hell right now. Your trust, your hope, your confidence must rest in none other than the person and work of Jesus Christ. In Q&A 95 of the Heidelberg Catechism, speaking about idolatry, one of the things it says is that to trust in anything instead of or besides the one true God is to be an idolator. If you trust in anything other than Christ or Christ plus something else, then you're already on the highway to hell as a member of the visible church. I'm telling you, turn away from trusting anything else and look to the only Savior Jesus! The church is not your Savior! Christ is the Savior of the church!

THE GOSPEL OF CHRIST

“Grace to you and peace from God the Father and our Lord Jesus Christ, who gave Himself for our sins…”
—Galatians 1:3-4

There are many people today who teach “another Gospel” (Gal. 1:8), which is not good news. They tell us we need to trust in our works if we will be right with God. Oh, they say faith is necessary since it puts us in the race, but our works carry us across the finish line. But this is not the Gospel that the Apostle Paul teaches in our text. The Apostle Paul taught that “Christ gave Himself for our sins” and therefore we must trust in Christ alone if we will be saved from Hell. In Acts 16:30-31, the Philippian jailor asked Paul and Silas, “What must I do to be saved?” They responded, “Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and you will be saved!” Notice Paul did not say do this, that, or the other thing and then you will be saved. He did not say be baptized, join a church, pay your tithes and you will be saved. He said, “Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ.” In other words, trust in Jesus!

Do you believe the message of the Gospel? Do you believe that Christ gave Himself for your sins? The Gospel is not ‘do this or that’ and then you’ll be saved –the Gospel is something that has already been accomplished. The Gospel is not something we do but something we believe. You see, the person and work of Jesus Christ is the Gospel. The Gospel is the Good News of the accomplished work of the Savior, Jesus Christ, on behalf of sinners. The Gospel is that Jesus has fulfilled all the righteous demands of the Law of God by His perfect law-abiding life and He has satisfied God’s holy wrath against sin by becoming a curse on the cross (Gal. 3:13) to cover the sins of all those given to Him by His Father (John 6:37).

The wonderful news is that Jesus’ perfect righteousness and sin-atoning blood is applied to all who trust in Him. As Scripture says, “Therefore let it be known to you, brethren, that through this Man is preached to you the forgiveness of sins; and by Him everyone who believes is justified from all things from which you could not be justified by the law of Moses” (Acts 13:38-39).

Are you trusting in Christ alone? If so, then you have all that is necessary unto your salvation in Him. Keep on looking to Christ and Christ alone for “this is the testimony: that God has given us eternal life, and this life is in His Son. He who has the Son has life…” (1 John 5:11-12).
