Salvation Is Something Amazing

Jul 27, 2025    Bishop Rickie Jackson

This powerful sermon explores the profound nature of salvation, emphasizing it as a gift from God that comes through grace and is received by faith. Bishop Jackson meticulously breaks down the process of salvation, explaining its roots in the Old Testament sacrificial system and its fulfillment in Jesus Christ. He stresses that salvation is not earned by works but is freely given, requiring only belief in Jesus' sacrificial death and resurrection. The sermon also addresses the importance of baptism as a public demonstration of faith, while clarifying that it is not the act of baptism itself that saves.
