How to Be Saved and How to Be Lost: The Way of Salvation and the Way of Condemnation Made as Plain as Day - Updated and Annotated

The purpose of this audiobook is to make the way of salvation as plain as day to men, women, and children, with the expectation that many of those who listen to the audiobook will see the way, will take it, will be saved at once, and will obtain eternal life. The audiobook goes out into the world for the same purpose that Jesus Christ came into it: To seek and to save that which was lost (Luke 19:10 AKJV).Jesus Christ came to save sinners.

Jesus Christ does save from sin’s guilt and from sin’s punishment; he does save from a guilty conscience and from Hell, but thank God, that is not all; he saves from sin’s power. Our Lord’s own words bring this out with great clearness and force. He says in John 8:34 (ASV), Every one that committeth sin is the bondservant [slave] of sin. We all know this is true. How many of us know from bitterest experience the slavery of sin, the slavery of drun
