    About this ebook

    Anyone can receive everlasting life from one step of faith the moment they believe Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God. This experience launches the believer into the assurance of an irreversible personal relationship with the Messiah (who died on the cross as payment for sin overcoming death by resurrection). Eternal security aligns with divine election by a sovereign God.

     

    This stunning simplicity appears to be the plain intended gospel of the saving faith message by New Testament authors. It is even possible that added religious steps or conditions for salvation, such as continuing subjection to Old Testament law, render ONE STEP of saving faith ineffectual. Examine your favorite translation to review salvation passages.

     

    Today, wonderful authors like Max Lucado, Dave Anderson, Charles Ryrie, Charlie Bing, Charles Stanley, Tony Evans, Creflo Dollar, Andrew Farley and Andrew Wommack keep the fire of free grace evangelism lit. Others; like David Jeremiah, Amanda Grace, Thomas Schreiner, James Beilby, Paul R. Eddy, Paul David Platt, Sid Roth, Joel Osteen, Franklin Graham, Robert Morris, Rick Warren, Jack Deere, Ed Young, Beth Moore, TD Jakes, Joyce Meyer, Tim Keller, Jack Graham and radio host June Hunt, along with Baptist ministers like Kerry Shook, Robert Jeffress,  Matt Chandler, John MacArthur, John Piper, RC Sproul and many, many others evangelize to the glory of God.

     

    These authors, preachers, and millions, perhaps billions of christians rely on brilliant bible translations like the NIV, NET, ESV, NRSV, Catholic Bible HCSB, NASB, Phillips New Testament, NKJV, Good News Holy Bible and Passion New Testament that possess amazing translations.

     

    Compare ONE STEP (and THE GRACE NEW TESTAMENT) with these respected authors, their books and English translations. Enjoy passages on money and wealth in JESUS RICH.

      APPENDIX – TABLE OF PASSAGES

      INTRODUCTION

      ––––––––

      This book compiles verses from THE GRACE NEW TESTAMENT on salvation. This is the ONE STEP Great News Gospel that unites Christendom. Chapters include passages from New Testament authors that usually add immediate context to understand the key verse rather merely provide a single verse. If you reject the New Testament as the underlying authority for Christendom, then this book will waste your time.

      Obviously, this subject is the ultimate issue in teachings of Jesus Christ, and the Apostles who wrote the New Testament. You go to heaven or the lake of fire for eternity. Decide the means of salvation for yourself, family and friends directly from biblical text. What was the Great News? If a person can be saved; how? The New Testament was written centuries earlier than organized Christian religion. Believe there is ONE STEP, or not. Do you? New Testament Christian life begins with the simple determination whether a person is a Christian; saved, or not? The rest of the New Testament concerns preparing the body of believers, the Church, to spread the ‘Great News’ about ONE STEP to all nations for the glory of God. BELIEVE, or not?

      Read other translations to see if David Kreiling betrays original authorial intent in THE GRACE NEW TESTAMENT.  Or is it the best contemporary English translation? You decide.

      NOTE ABOUT THE NOTES: READ THE PARENTHETICAL ‘DK NOTE’ AFTER EACH PASSAGE TO HELP UNDERSTAND THE SIMPLE UNITY THAT BINDS THESE PASSAGES INTO ONE STEP TO ETERNAL SALVATION.

      ONE STEP (TO SALVATION)

      ––––––––

      JOHN

      JOHN 1:12

      1:12 But to all who accepted Him, to them He gave the ABSOLUTE UNCONDITIONAL right to become GOD’S children; to those who BELIEVE in His Name.

      DK NOTE

      Entry into a new FAMILY RELATIONSHIP as children of God is a gifted right for ALL BELIEVERS in HE who is named JESUS CHRIST.

      ––––––––

      JOHN 3:14-16

      3:14 Just as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness and BELIEVED in a single saving ETERNAL glance, so must the SON OF MAN be lifted up once, 3:15 that whoever BELIEVES in Him in a single passing moment, should not perish, but have ETERNAL LIFE. 3:16 For GOD so loved the world, that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever BELIEVES in Him should not perish, but have ETERNAL LIFE. 

      DK NOTE

      John compares BELIEF in the SON OF GOD, as ONE SINGLE STEP into an eternal RELATIONSHIP, to a single BELIEF event in life of MOSES.

      JOHN 3:18

      3:18 He who BELIEVES in Him is not judged. He who doesn’t BELIEVE has been judged already, because He has not BELIEVED in the Name of the one and only SON of GOD.

      DK NOTE

      John compares single BELIEF event in the SON OF GOD with simple absence of BELIEF.

      ––––––––

      JOHN 3:17

      3:17 For GOD did not send His Son into the world to judge the world, but that the world should be SAVED through Him.

      DK NOTE

      ‘Him,’ as a personal pronoun, refers to a PERSON who enters RELATIONSHIPS with people of the world, as SAVIOR.

      ––––––––

      JOHN 3:36

      3:36 One who BELIEVES in the Son has ETERNAL LIFE, but one who is unresponsive, or rejects the Son, will not see ETERNAL LIFE, but the wrath of GOD remains with him FOREVER.

      DK NOTE

      BELIEF IN JESUS creates eternal RELATIONSHIP with the living God.

      ––––––––

      JOHN 4:41

      4:41 Many more BELIEVED because of His WORD. 4:42 They said to the woman, "Now we BELIEVE, not just because of what you said; for we now have heard for ourselves from Him, and know that this is indeed the CHRIST, the SAVIOR of the world."

      DK NOTE

      Many BELIEVED from knowing JESUS AS SAVIOR.

      ––––––––

      JOHN 5:24

      5:24 "Most certainly I tell you, he who hears My WORD, and BELIEVES him who sent Me, has ETERNAL LIFE, and doesn’t come into judgment, but has passed out of death into life." 

      DK NOTE

      Person hearing and BELIEVING God’s Word about the SON OF GOD is assured eternal life with the personal God: implying a relational connection.

      ––––––––

      JOHN 5:38-40

      5:38 You don’t have His message living in you; because you don’t BELIEVE Him whom He sent. 5:39 You search the SCRIPTURES, because you think that in reading them you have ETERNAL LIFE; and these words do testify about Me. 5:40 Yet you will not come to Me, personally, and believe, that you may have life.

      DK NOTE

      Take ONE STEP of PERSONAL BELIEF for ETERNAL LIFE. But the act of reading scripture, like other liturgical acts, or any other step one might try, does not lead to eternal life according to the words of JESUS.

      ––––––––

      JOHN 6:28,29

      6:28 They said, therefore, to Him, What must we do, that we may accomplish the works of GOD? 6:29 JESUS answered them, This is the only act leading to ETERNAL LIFE, that you BELIEVE in Him whom He has sent.

      DK NOTE

      ONE STEP is the only way to eternal life according to JESUS.

      ––––––––

      JOHN 6:35-40

      6:35 JESUS said to them, "I am the bread of life. He who comes to Me will never be hungry, and He who BELIEVES in Me will never be THIRSTY. 6:36 But I told you that you have seen Me, and yet you still don’t BELIEVE. 6:37 All those who the FATHER gives Me will come to Me. Him who comes to Me I will in no way throw out. 6:38 For I have come down from HEAVEN, not to do My own will, but the will of Him who sent Me. 6:39 This is the will of My FATHER who sent Me, that of all He has given to Me I should lose nothing, but should raise Him up at the last day. 6:40 This is the will of the one who sent Me, that everyone who sees the Son, and BELIEVES in Him, should have ETERNAL LIFE; and I will raise Him up at the last day." 

      DK NOTE

      Come to Jesus and BELIEVE IN HIM for eternal RELATIONSHIP with God the Father and God the Son.

      ––––––––

      JOHN 6:66-69

      6:66 At this, many of His disciples went back, and walked no more with Him. 6:67 So JESUS said to the twelve, You don’t also want to go away, do you? 6:68 Simon Peter answered Him, "LORD, to whom would we go? You have the words of ETERNAL LIFE. 6:69 We have come to BELIEVE, and know that you are the CHRIST, the Son of the living GOD."

      DK NOTE

      Apostles BELIEVED He is THE CHRIST in whom they have eternal life with the personal God: a RELATIONSHIP.

      ––––––––

      JOHN 8:19

      8:19 They said to Him, Where is your FATHER? JESUS answered, "You know neither Me, nor My FATHER. If you knew Me, you would know My FATHER also."

      DK NOTE

      KNOWING JESUS IS THE CHRIST begins a new RELATIONSHIP. The person now knows God: Father of Jesus.

      ––––––––

      JOHN 8:25-32

      8:25 They said to Him, Who are you? JESUS said to them, Just what I have been saying to you from the beginning. 8:26 I have many things to speak and to judge concerning you. However, He who sent Me is true; and the things which I heard from Him, these I say to the world. 8:27 They didn’t understand that He spoke to them about the FATHER. 

      8:28 JESUS said to them, "When you have lifted up the SON OF MAN, then you will know that I AM HE, and I do nothing of myself, but as My FATHER taught Me, I say these things. 8:29 He who sent Me is with Me. The FATHER hasn’t left Me alone, for I always do the things that are pleasing to Him." 8:30 As He spoke these things, many BELIEVED in Him.

      8:31 JESUS said to those Jews who had BELIEVED Him, "If you remain steadfast in My WORD, then you show yourselves to others as truly My disciples. 8:32 You will know the TRUTH, and the TRUTH will make you ABSOLUTELY and completely FREE."

      DK NOTE

      One who BELIEVES IN HIM is ‘Jesus Rich’: free in new disciple RELATIONSHIP to attempt obedience to the Word and continuity of faith.

      ––––––––

      JOHN 8:51

      8:51 Most certainly, I tell you, if a person keeps My WORD by BELIEVING in Me, he will never see death.

      DK NOTE

      There is no death for one who BELIEVES in Jesus CHRIST.

      JOHN 9:35-39

      He said, Do you BELIEVE in the SON of GOD? 9:36 He answered, Who is He, LORD, that I may BELIEVE in Him? 9:37 JESUS said to Him, You have both seen Him, and it is He, who speaks with you. 9:38 He said, LORD, I BELIEVE! And he worshiped Him. 9:39 JESUS said, "I came into this world for judgment, that those who don’t see may see; and that those who
