GPP 28: Saved Completely

When Jesus saves you, He completely saves;
No believer should fear his soul’s at risk;
For Christ in salvation two pathways paves—
Both accomplished for each soul in a whisk!
When in Him as the Messiah* you trust,
He makes you full cleansed from sin by His blood;
You’re saved from hell, but go non-trusters must;
That’s the first pavement He provides from mud!
Freed from hell, next, to heav’n you want to go,
So He covers your sins with snow-white robes;
You’re admitted there, on Jesus’ say-so,
Your filthy rags under His sinless clothes!
You can’t earn or buy either one of these,
But if you believe, they’re free as the breeze!

*Messiah = the Son of God

Promise Made: Hebrews 7:25—“Therefore he [Jesus] is able to save completely those who come to God through him, because he always lives to intercede for them.” [Bracket added]

“For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have everlasting life.” (John 3:16)

“That if you confess with your mouth, ‘Jesus is Lord’, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.” (Romans 10:9)
