you are saved?

 

Salvation is not earned but it is a gift from God, you don't have to do anything to get it, no work, you get it by faith. But authentic and sincere faith is needed, as it is described in the Bible!

For by grace you have been saved, by fede; and that not of yourselves:; it is the gift of God. It is not by works, lest any man should boast. Ephesians 2:9

The gospel is being preached to everyone by now, but it is not accepted by everyone. This is what will determine a person's future, eternal life and salvation.

In theology we define the external call and the inner call. They are very different from each other.

The external call it affects everyone without distinction, it is the moment in which the gospel is presented to a person and the message of salvation. Receiving the external call does not mean being saved and becoming a Christian. Just because we have heard the story of Christ and his resurrection does not mean that we will be saved, the interior call is also needed, and it doesn't always happen to everyone. For the external call, God entrusts the task to his disciples who are committed by vocation to the ministry of evangelization. If a person does not accept the call, it makes an affront to God himself and only increases his own guilt. It is also the established means by which God gathers the elect from all the nations of the earth. The external call can occur several times in a person's life.

The inner call instead, it occurs only once in a lifetime, and it is that which determines the becoming a Christian and the salvation by faith; is the time when, inside us, God speaks to us and enlightens us, and makes us understand that we have become his children. It will no longer cause us to doubt because we will suddenly be filled with the Holy Spirit. The next step after the outward call is repentance (sincere and authentic because God reads in our hearts) of sins before the crucified Christ and the request for forgiveness. Since that time, from that moment in which “you will be born again” as a new Christian, you WILL BE SAVED. You will promise, directly to Him, to always walk in the ways of the Lord.

And it will come to pass that whoever calls on the name of the Lord will be saved. (proceedings 2:21)

How to understand if the inner call has been received?

There are no logical ways to explain, every person who receives it realizes it from mystical experience of communion with God and has no doubts about this.

I am dealing with the outer calling, that is, of evangelization and of presenting the gospel to the people, for the interior one you have to entrust yourself to God and turn to Him, only He can enlighten you, make you understand everything that now seems absurd to you, and save you.

My greatest wish is that you, you are now reading this page, can experience the same experience, the same that millions of believers have with the inner call, and your life will be completely changed for the better.
