Today I want to share with uou a passage from the Gospel of Luke about the requirements of salvation: What we need to do to be saved.
"And, behold, a certain lawyer stood up, and tempted
him, saying, Master, what shall I do to inherit eternal life? He said unto him,
What is written in the law? how readest thou? And he answering said, Thou shalt
love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all
thy strength, and with all thy mind; and thy neighbour as thyself. And he said
unto him, Thou hast answered right: this do, and thou shalt live. But he,
willing to justify himself, said unto Jesus, And who is my neighbour? And Jesus
answering said, A certain man went down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and
fell among thieves, which stripped him of his raiment, and wounded him,
and departed, leaving him half dead. And by chance there came down a
certain priest that way: and when he saw him, he passed by on the other side. And
likewise a Levite, when he was at the place, came and looked on him, and
passed by on the other side. But a certain Samaritan, as he journeyed, came
where he was: and when he saw him, he had compassion on him, And went to
him, and bound up his wounds, pouring in oil and wine, and set him on
his own beast, and brought him to an inn, and took care of him. And on the
morrow when he departed, he took out two pence, and gave them to the
host, and said unto him, Take care of him; and whatsoever thou spendest more,
when I come again, I will repay thee. Which now of these three, thinkest thou,
was neighbour unto him that fell among the thieves? And he said, He that shewed
mercy on him. Then said Jesus unto him, Go, and do thou likewise." Luke 10:25 -
