Welcome to the Youth On The Rock Community!

Home
This site was created in order to create an environment where members of Christ's body across the globe can come encourage, learn, and share their faith. As a result we hope that 1) we will be a testimony of God and His character to those who do not know Him yet (2 Tim 1:8-10) and 2) to mature spiritually to a point where we desire and need 'solid food' (Heb 5:13,14).

Please have a look at the site guidelines (YOTR Guidelines), introduce yourself here and join us! We'd also love to hear *your* testimony and how you came to know God here: Testimonies.

The real definition of 'salvation'


This is something I wrote a while ago but I want to repost it here cause topic after topic show that most people don't know/understand what salvation (and sin) is. I know it's a bit long, but it's a must read...

Though most people refer to Salvation as the time we accept Jesus as Lord and Saviour, that is actually only the first step of Salvation. There are three parts:

1) Justification
2) Sanctification
3) Glorification

First I'm adding the definitions for Soul and Spirit before the post in hopes that it'll be more clear

The Human Spirit

The Parts of the SpiritOur human spirit is also composed of three parts: the conscience, fellowship, and intuition. The conscience is that part which enables us to perceive right from wrong and which, accordingly, either condemns or justifies us. Through the fellowship, we are able to contact God and commune with Him. Finally, through the intuition God imparts to us a direct, particular sense or knowledge which is independent of reason, circumstance, situation, or precedent. These three faculties of the spirit: conscience, fellowship, and intui...

EXPERIENCE SUPERSEDED


"And they who know Thy Name will put their trust in Thee" (Psalm 9:10).

Our experiences must be judged by God's Word, never the Word judged by our experiences. Normally, the Spirit of Truth will reveal a truth to us from the Scriptures and, as we exercise faith in what we have been shown, will begin to take us into the experience of it. Abnormally, a Christian will yearn for an 'experience,' and then attempt to find corroboration for it in the Word.

"Knowledge must carry the torch before faith." Always give God's Word first place, "for the Word of God liveth and worketh, and is sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, yea, to the inmost parts thereof, and judging the thoughts and imaginations of the heart" (Hebrews 4:12, Cony.).

"A person may easily know his sins forgiven, but it is a further truth to know that he himself has 'died to sin.' He finds this conflicts with his experience. Suppose I tell you a debt of a thousand pounds which you owed was paid by someone, it would not be a question of experience, but of simply believing my statement. Just so with God. He tells us our sins are forgiven, and it is a question whether we believe Him. But when He tells us we have died to sin, we look inside and say, 'Ah, sin is still at work; how is that?' A person must be taught of God to know really the truth that he has died to sin." -J.N.D.

"It is written, That man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of God" (Luke 4:4).
