Topic: THE MOST IMPORTANT THING YOU CAN DO!

1 Corinthians 15:1 – 4 (NASB)

1 Now I make known to you, brethren, the gospel which I preached to you, which also you received, in which also you stand, (Romans 10:17)

2 by which also you are saved, if you hold fast the word which I preached to you, unless you believed in vain. (John 8:31; 1 John 2:19)

Romans 10:9 – 10 (NLT)

9If you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.

10For it is by believing in your heart that you are made right with God, and it is by confessing with your mouth that you are saved.

John 8:31 (KJV)

31Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed;
