What does the Bible teach about salvation?

Is faith in Jesus Christ enough, or must we add good works, religious traditions, or personal effort?

In this message from Acts 15, we examine the first major doctrinal conflict of the early church as the apostles confronted one of the most important questions in Christianity: Are we saved by grace through faith alone, or by grace plus works?

Discover how the Jerusalem Council established the biblical doctrine of salvation, why Scripture—not tradition or experience—must remain our final authority, and how the Holy Spirit guided the church through disagreement without compromising truth.

In this message you'll learn:

Why salvation is by grace alone through faith alone

The danger of adding works to the Gospel

How churches should resolve doctrinal disagreements

The biblical role of Scripture and the Holy Spirit in decision-making

Lessons from the disagreement between Paul and Barnabas

What it means to live by faith every day

Whether you're exploring Christianity or seeking a deeper understanding of biblical doctrine, this study from Acts provides timeless truth for every believer.
