The Bible Answers this Question - Can Salvation Be Earned?
What does the Bible say about gaining a new future beyond what we know now.
Is this 'salvation' - a life beyond the grave in heaven or hell or is it after the resurrection in a Divine Kingdom on earth?
What did Jesus teach?
The Lord's Prayer states - ...'Thy Kingdom Come, that your Will is Done, In earth as it is in heaven'
What does the Old Testament state?
'And it shall come to pass in the last days, that the mountain of the LORD'S house shall be established in the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills; and all nations shall flow unto it. And many people shall go and say, Come ye, and let us go up to the mountain of the LORD, to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths: for out of Zion shall go forth the law, and the word of the LORD from Jerusalem.
Isaiah 2:2-4 KJV
If this is the Biblical teaching of the future World scene - whats our place now?
For the wages of sin is death; but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Romans 6:23 ASV
What should we do now to gain that kind of life? Are we to earn a Christian future by our merits or is there also a need to explore what is the purpose of God too?
'What doth it profit, my brethren, if a man say he hath faith, but have not works? can that faith save him? If a brother or sister be naked and in lack of daily food, and one of you say unto them, Go in peace, be ye warmed and filled; and yet ye give them not the things needful to the body; what doth it profit? Even so faith, if it have not works, is dead in itself.'
James 2:14-17 ASV
Jesus' teaching calls us to a Crossroad in life:
And he [Jesus] said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to the whole creation. He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that disbelieveth shall be condemned.
Mark 16:15-16 ASV

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
