Bible Questions and Answers

A visitor writes,

"Act 16:30-31 the order of salvation"

Acts 16:30  And he brought them out and said, "Sirs, what must I do to be saved?" 31  So they said, "Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and you will be saved, you and your household."
‘Believe in the Lord Jesus Christ’ is a brief statement which we know from elsewhere in the Scriptures is shorthand for several things required of us if we would attain to salvation.
For salvation we must:
1. Believe the Gospel. 
The Gospel consists of the things concerning the kingdom of God, and the name of Jesus Christ.
Acts 8:12  But when they believed Philip as he preached the things concerning the kingdom of God and the name of Jesus Christ, both men and women were baptized.
2. Repent of our past sins – change the way that we think and behave.
Acts 2:38  Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins…
3. Be baptised by immersion in water.
Mark 16: 15  And He said to them, "Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature. 16  "He who believes and is baptized will be saved; but he who does not believe will be condemned. 
4. Live a new life by obeying the commandments of Jesus Christ.
John 15:13  "Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down one’s life for his friends. 14  "You are My friends if you do whatever I command you.
Matthew 7:24  "Therefore whoever hears these sayings of Mine, and does them, I will liken him to a wise man who built his house on the rock: 25  "and the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house; and it did not fall, for it was founded on the rock. 26  "But everyone who hears these sayings of Mine, and does not do them, will be like a foolish man who built his house on the sand: 27  "and the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house; and it fell. And great was its fall."
I hope this helps.
God bless,
