We at Selah Ministries Believe:

The need of Salvation: All men and women, since the fall of our father Adam, are born in a state of spiritual death. Because of their evil nature, they cannot and will not turn to God. They cannot of themselves obey God or exercise faith in Christ. (John 5:40; 6:44; Rom. 3:9-19; 5:12; Eph. 2:1-3) The cause of Salvation: From before creation God chose many of Adam's fallen race to salvation. Those whom He chose deserve God's wrath as much as the others. However, God chose them in Christ and determined to save them, and this He most certainly will do. (Eph.1:3-6; 2 Thess. 2:13-14) The work of Salvation: The Lord Jesus Christ died as the Substitute for those whom God chose from before the foundation of the world and by His blood made atonement for their sins. He redeemed them from the curse of the law and obtained eternal redemption for them. By His death, Christ infallibly and justly secured the salvation of those that God the Father gave Him to represent. (John 10:9; Rom. 3:24-26; Gal. 3:13; Heb. 9:12) The means of Salvation: God the Holy Spirit effectually calls every chosen, redeemed sinner to Christ. This He does by the faithful preaching of the Gospel. He brings them to life and turns them to Christ in repentance and faith. By His almighty grace, God makes them new creatures in Christ. (Psa. 65:4; 110:3; Eph.2:1-8) The certainly of Salvation: God keeps all whom He chose and redeemed by Christ and calls them by the Holy Spirit. These He keeps and seals by His grace. He never takes away the grace nor the faith that He gives them. Those who are born of God can never perish. They will persevere because they are "kept by the power of God through faith." (1 Peter 1:5: John 10:27-30; Phil. 1:6) In Summary...... We believe that Christ is the Gospel. The entire Bible is about Him. The sure and only hope of every child of God is in Him. Every aspect of salvation from beginning (election) to end (glorification) is all of God's grace. Man cannot and should not ascribe salvation to any part of his will, work or worth. "By grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God. Not of works, lest any man should boast." (Eph. 2:8-9)

Christ the Mediator

The Eternal Mediator It pleased God, in his eternal purpose, to choose the Lord Jesus, his one and only Son, to be the mediator between God and man. He was to be the Prophet, Priest, and King, the head and Savior of his church, the heir of all things and judge of the world. To the Lord Jesus the Father gave, from all eternity, a people to redeem, call, justify, sanctify, and glorify. 1 Peter 1:17-21, 1 Timothy 2:1-7, Hebrews 1:1-4, Hebrews 5:1-10, Luke 1:26-33, Ephesians 1:15-23, Romans 8:28-30, John 5:16-30 Fully God and Fully Man Jesus Christ, the Son of God and second person of the Trinity, is God. He is of the same essence as the Father and equal to him. At just the right time, according to the predestined plan of God, the eternal Son became a man. He was made like us in every way, except for his sinlessness. He was conceived by the Holy Spirit in the womb of the virgin Mary. This union of the divine and human made Jesus forever both God and man in one person. He is fully God and fully man. His divine and human natures are neither altered, blended, or confused. Jesus Christ, the only mediator between God and man, was, and is, fully God and fully man. John 1:1-14, Romans 1:1-4, John 3:16, Matthew 28:18-20, John 14:5-14, John 10:22-39, Galatians 4:1-7, Hebrews 4:14-16, Luke 1:26-38, Matthew 1:18-24, 1 Timothy 2:1-7, Hebrews 2:5-18 His Humiliation and Exaltation The Lord Jesus willingly accepted his appointment as mediator and perfectly fulfilled that office. He endured the most severe tortures of soul and body, was crucified, buried, and remained under the power of death for three days, without seeing corruption. He rose from the dead on the third day. He ascended into heaven, where he sat down at the Father's right hand and intercedes for his people. From the Father's right hand he shall physically return at the end of the world to judge all men and angels. John 10:14-18, Galatians 3:10-14, Isaiah 53, 1 Corinthians 15:1-8, Acts 1:1-11, Acts 13:34-37, Romans 8:31-34, 2 Timothy 4:1-5 He Perfectly Satisfied the Justice of God By his perfect obedience (active obedience) and sacrifice of himself to God (passive obedience), the Lord Jesus, through the power of the Holy Spirit, satisfied fully the justice of God and purchased for his people their complete salvation. Romans 3:21-26, Hebrews 9:11-15, Hebrews 10:1-18 He is the Redeemer of Those Saved in the Old Testament The price of redemption was not paid by Jesus Christ until after his coming in human flesh. But the benefits of his finished work were applied retroactively to God's elect living before the cross, as well as to those of us who have followed. By means of promises, types, sacrifices, and ceremonies, the Messiah is progressively revealed to be the woman's "offspring" who would crush the head of the serpent. He is "the lamb that was slain from the creation of the world." He is the same Savior for all the elect "yesterday, today, and forever." Galatians 4:1-7, Romans 3:21-26, Romans 4:1-8, John 3:16, Genesis 3, Hebrews 10:1-18, Colossians 2:13-23, Revelation 5, Revelation 13:1-10, Hebrews 13:1-8 Jesus Christ, as our Prophet, Priest, and King The three offices of Jesus Christ, our Messiah, are necessary for us. Because of our ignorance we need him to be our Prophet. Because of our separation from God we need him to be our Priest so that we can be made to be acceptable to him. Because we have rebelled against him and have become God-haters there is absolutely no way for us to return to him, therefore we need him to be our King to convince, draw, deliver, and preserve us for his heavenly kingdom. 1 Timothy 2:1-7, John 1:15-18, Colossians 1:21-22, Romans 5:9-11, Ephesians 2:1-10, John 6:44
