How Can You Know You're Saved? The Plan of Salvation in Scripture

B23L6 How can you know you're saved? How can you know you have eternal life? Romans 3:23 through Romans 10:13 lays out the complete plan of salvation — verse by verse. ✝️ This special lesson steps away from the verse-by-verse flow of Romans 8 to walk through the entire plan of salvation using Scripture alone. The study opens with Romans 3:23 — all have come short of the glory of God — and moves to Romans 6:23, contrasting wages (death) with the gift of eternal life. Romans 1:16 establishes that it is the Gospel — not church membership, baptism, or good works — that is the power of God unto salvation. The Gospel itself is defined precisely from 1 Corinthians 15:1-4: Christ died for our sins, was buried, and rose again the third day. Ephesians 1:12-14 is opened to show that after believing the Gospel, God seals the believer with the Holy Spirit of promise as His mark of ownership — the earnest of our inheritance. Romans 5:8 declares that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us — God saves us exactly where we are, then does the work of regeneration. Romans 5:20 shows that where sin abounded, grace did much more abound. The lesson closes with Romans 10:9-13: confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus, believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, and thou shalt be saved — for whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. 📖 Key Topics Covered: • Romans 3:23 — all have sinned and come short of the glory of God • Romans 6:23 — wages of sin is death; gift of God is eternal life • 1 Corinthians 15:1-4 — the Gospel defined: Christ died, buried, rose again • Ephesians 1:12-14 — sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise after believing • Romans 5:8 — while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us • Romans 5:20 — where sin abounded, grace did much more abound • Romans 10:9-13 — confess, believe, call upon the Lord and be saved 🔑 Plan of salvation Bible verses, Romans 10:9-13 how to be saved, 1 Corinthians 15:1-4 Gospel explained, Romans 3:23 all have sinned, Romans 6:23 gift of God eternal life, sealed Holy Spirit Ephesians 1:13, Romans 5:8 while we were yet sinners.
