Many people today confuse salvation with religion, rituals, repentance formulas, or self-effort. But in this dispensation of grace, the gospel revealed to Paul (Galatians 1:11–12) makes salvation simple, finished, paid, and free. Christ did the work. Christ made the payment. Christ rose as the receipt. And the preaching of the cross—entrusted to Paul—is how that free gift is delivered to the world.

This message shows the simplicity of salvation and the certainty that comes from understanding Paul’s gospel.

𝐂𝐎𝐍𝐂𝐋𝐔𝐒𝐈𝐎𝐍

Salvation is not a process, not a payment plan, and not a performance test.
It is a purchased gift, confirmed by Christ’s resurrection, and delivered through the preaching of Paul’s gospel.

Christ’s blood paid the price,
Christ’s resurrection proved the payment,
and Christ’s gospel preached by Paul proclaims the free offer.

Nothing more needs to be added. Nothing more can be paid. Nothing more can be earned.

𝐂𝐀𝐋𝐋 𝐓𝐎 𝐀𝐂𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍

Believe the Gospel — Trust Christ alone for salvation
Boldly proclaim the Cross — Share the free message of grace
Be grounded in Paul’s Epistles — Understand the gospel for today

Salvation is free—don’t complicate what Christ already completed.

𝐅𝐈𝐍𝐀𝐋 𝐓𝐇𝐎𝐔𝐆𝐇𝐓𝐒

It Is Finished — Christ made the payment
It Is Proven — The resurrection is the receipt
It Is Preached — The cross is the message of eternal life
