Being "saved"  means:

Hearing and believing the Good News that

Jesus is available with His kingdom (His way of governing)

and it is now possible for anyone who wishes

to come to Him and trust Him,

and learn His redemptive (rescuing and transforming) presence

in all that we  perceive, experience, feel, know and do.

"Faith" is the genuine confidence that

He is the One who is completely in charge.

Becoming and remaining a disciple (apprentice) to Jesus

is the only sane response to that message.

Are we proclaiming (or hearing) a Gospel

that has a natural tendency to produce disciples (apprentices) to Jesus?

Or do we proclaim (or hear) a Gospel

that merely generates consumers of religious goods and services? -

-A "gospel" of mere forgiveness,

-of merely being "a good person" or "loving yourself,"

-of mere family or group loyalty,

-of mere community service,

-of mere social or political activism,

-of changing America

does not produce disciples.
