Introduction What God requires for salvation is a source of great disagreement. The vast majority of denominations believe “faith only” saves. “Faith only” has its roots in Calvin’s T-U-L-I-P: Eph. 2:8-10 “Faith only” folks believe Saul of Tarsus is an example of one saved by “faith only.” “Faith only” folks believe Saul of Tarsus was saved on the road to Damascus.

If Saul Was Saved on the Road to Damascus Acts 9, 16, 26

If saved on the road… Saved without being told what to do: Acts 9:6; Jas. 2:24; Acts 22:16 Saved before and without faith: Rom. 10:17; 2 Thess. 2:13-14; Eph. 1:13; Heb. 11:6; Acts 28:25-29; Mk. 16:15-16; Matt. 28:19-20 Saved without pleasing or coming to God: Heb. 11:6; Jn. 14:6; Heb. 7:25 Saved without obedience: Jas. 2:24; Matt. 7:21; Lk. 6:46; Heb. 5:9; Rev. 22:14; Mk. 16:16; Rom. 6:3-4, 17-18; Acts 22:16; 1 Pet. 3:21; Col. 2:12 Saved on the Road?

If saved on the road… Saved outside of Christ: 2 Tim. 2:10; Acts 4:12; Jn. 14:6; Gal. 3:26-29 Saved in sins: Acts 22:16 Saved without calling on the name of the Lord: Acts 22:16; Rom. 10:13; Acts 2:17-21, 36-39, 41; Rom. 10:17 Saved without knowing it: Acts 9:8-9; Acts 8:39; Acts 16:34; Acts 9:18-20 Saved on the Road?

Conclusion This should help us realize we’re not saved before and without water baptism: 1 Pet. 3:21; Col. 2:12 Jesus said, “He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.” : Mk. 16:16 Do you believe that? Have you been baptized? “And now why tarriest thou? Arise and be baptized, and wash away thy sins, calling on the name of the Lord.” : Acts 22:16 Saved on the Road?
