But how are we saved? What is<br \/>salvation? Is it a psychological state of mind? Is it secured by just claiming that we are saved?<br \/>Is it a mental assent, or even a sincere mental belief in Bible truths relating to Christ? According<br \/>to the Bible, salvation is none of these things.<br \/>In the Bible, salvation is presented as a supernatural experience by the power of God. We read<br \/>that the Gospel is \u201cthe power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth.\u201d Rom. 1, 16.<br \/>Ten days after Christ ascended into heaven, and fifty days after His crucifixion, the Holy Spirit<br \/>was sent from heaven. This was the Day of Pentecost, an important feast of Israel. Those first<br \/>waiting believers were \u201call filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as<br \/>the Spirit gave them utterance.\u201d Acts 2, 4. The miracle of speaking with other tongues was the<br \/>immediate evidence and outward result of the coming of the Holy Spirit. This miraculous sign<br \/>attracted in Jerusalem a questioning crowd of some thousands of people.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5dc1aad elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"5dc1aad\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>After Peter had preached to this multitude concerning the coming of the Holy Spirit, and of the<br \/>necessity of salvation, he was asked by many \u201cWHAT SHALL WE DO?\u201d His reply was bold,<br \/>and direct.
