WHAT MUST I DO TO BE SAVED? (Acts 16: 30)

Scripture: Acts 1:25 - 31.
We are living in days of uncertainty, unrest and unhappiness. We open the newspapers day after day to find headlines that tell of murder, robbery, tragic deaths by accidents, serious losses by fire, immoral living, and were it not for the Word of God where we find a refuge from the storms of life, we would certainly be bewildered and shaken without a hope for the future.
Were it not for the Gospel of Christ we would be of all men most miserable. We would be without hope and without God in this world. Were it not for the reality of salvation, we would not have "the peace of God which passeth all understanding." We would not have that peace that floods our souls, that "shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus." Phil. 4:7.
The acceptance of Jesus Christ brings assurance in our hearts of the blessing and presence of new life in Him. By faith in Jesus Christ we stand upon the Rock of Ages and we have a sure foundation for time and Eternity. Do you have that Assurance of Salvation in the Lord?
David knew that God had heard his prayer. In Psa. 40:2-3, we read, "He brought me up also out of an horrible pit, out of the miry clay, and set my feet upon a rock, and established my goings. And path put a new song in my mouth, even praise unto our God; many shall see it, and fear, and shall trust in the Lord."
It was wonderful that Job could say " I know that my Redeemer liveth." Job. 19:25.
