Can we be saved only by faith?
Can we be saved only by faith?
Let's disprove it.
It is sure the we receive salvation by faith.
However, we should have not only faith but also deeds from faith in order to be saved.
Jesus said,
Mark 16/16 Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believes will be condemned.
Can we be saved only by faith, without being baptized?
NO!!
Thus, we need to do something with faith to be saved.
Jesus said that even His disciples would have no part with Him if they did not practice a certain deed.
John 13/8 said Peter, " you shall never wash my feet," Jesus answered, "Unless I wash you, you have no part with me."
Didn't Peter believe in Jesus at that time? YES!!
Peter already believed in Jesus as Christ.
Nevertheless, Jesus said to him, "Unless I wash you, you have no part with me."
How can a man who has no part with Jesus be saved?
Likewise, there are things that we must do to be saved.
Representative examples are Baptism and Passover.
That's why Jesus said that those who do the will of God will be saved.
Matthew 7/21 Not everyone who says to me, 'Lord,Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven.
So we must practice the will of God. Being baptized is the will of God, and keeping the Passover too, is the will of God.
Therefore, it is wrong to insist that they do not need to keep the Passover because they can saved only by faith.

The Bible tells us that faith in God is also important, but it should be accompanied by practice based on faith.
As Jesus showed us 2,000 years ago, we must be baptized and keep the Passover.
We cannot have salvation with only faith. In order to receive true salvation, we need both faith and actions. That's why Jesus set examples of keeping the commandments of God. Jesus kept the Sabbath and the Passover of the New Covenant Himself. So, we should keep the Sabbath and the Passover of the New Covenant as Jesus did. The only criterion is the words of the bible. Let's distinguish truth from falsehood through the Bible so that we can enter the Kingdom of Heaven.
God commanded us to keep the law of God and established the New Covenant for our salvation. It's natural that we keep the New Covenant by obeying the words of God to receive salvation. God allows us to receive salvation through the New Covenant. How blessed we are!!
If faith alone could get you to heaven, then preaching the gospel of the kingdom of heaven would be a breeze. However, it is not only faith but also obedience, which is practiced according to faith, that determines whether one enters the kingdom of heaven. When the apostle Peter refused to wash Jesus' feet during the pre-Passover foot-washing ceremony because he felt burdened, Jesus told him that he had nothing to do with Jesus. Was Peter a faithless apostle? Isn't faith enough to get into heaven, but isn't it a lesson that works are also important?
