THE BIBLE is the inspired and unerring record of what God has revealed
to men concerning Himself and the Way of Salvation. [II Tim. 3:16+, Gal.
1:8] Hence, if we ask, "What must I do to be saved?" the answer to our
question must be sought in the Bible. It tells us what to believe and
what to do in order that we may belong to God's kingdom on earth and in
heaven. [Matt. 6:33+, Acts 16:30+, John 5:39+] It is the only rule and
standard of Christian faith and life.
WHY NEEDED. Even without the Bible, men know that there is a Higher
Being. Their own conscience tells them that there is a God who will
punish them if they do wrong; [Rom 2:14, 15] and the works of nature
proclaim that there is an Almighty Being who created them. [Ps. 19:1+]
But the knowledge of God which men gain from their own conscience and
from nature is insufficient. Neither nature nor conscience can tell us
anything about the Way of Salvation which God has prepared for us in
Jesus Christ. It is only from the Bible that we can learn how we shall
be saved.
