The Requirements of the Citizen
(51 downloads)Download this episode (15 min)
To enter the kingdom of God one must be born again. This involves having faith, repenting of our sins, confessing Jesus as Christ and being immersed in the waters of baptism. This is the requirement of citizenship for man. (Mk 16:16; Acts 2:38; Romans 10:9-10; Romans 6:3-6) Those who meet these requirements are translated into the present kingdom of God’s dear Son (cp Col 1:12-14)
However, to remain in this kingdom the citizen is obligated to make their calling and election sure. That is, they must maintain righteousness in their lives. Righteousness that Jesus said must surpass that of the scribes and Pharisees. (cp Matt 5:20) It is with diligence in growing in the grace and knowledge of Jesus Christ that the citizen maintains this righteousness. (II Pet 1:5-9) Those then that maintain, endure, or continue steadfastly will receive an abundant entrance into the everlasting (heavenly) kingdom of Jesus Christ (cp II Pet 1:10-11)
In this lesson, we will focus our attention on the required righteousness of the citizen of the kingdom.
