Believe To Receive
JULY 15, 2026
Daily Reading—Neh. 9-10 / Acts 15:1-27
WHAT GOD HAS SAID:
Acts 13:38-39 Be it known unto you therefore, men and brethren, that through this man is preached unto you the forgiveness of sins: And by him all that believe are justified from all things, from which ye could not be justified by the law of Moses.
WHAT I HAVE SEEN:
I recall from my youth a little ditty-type song that said, “Oh, you can’t go to heaven, in the preacher’s car, ’cause the preacher’s car, won’t go that far,” and “you can’t go to heaven on roller skates, ’cause you’ll roll right by those pearly gates.” Fact is, you will not enter heaven unless you put faith in Christ as your Saviour.
Sadly, some believe you can get into heaven by church membership, being good, or doing religious works. Paul told the people of Antioch the laws of Moses would not justify them. To receive the cleansing of our sin and to be justified before God, we must believe in the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus alone. Through Christ alone will we gain eternal life with God.
