A challenging exposition of Jesus' teaching about salvation and the place of righteous living in salvation.

The common questions asked when it comes to salvation are: How can we be saved?


Do I have to live a godly life to be saved?


Can anyone be sure of salvation?


What happens if I fall into sin or turn away completely?


How did Jesus answer these questions?


Not, not according to Alan Stanley, in the way that we often do!


In this powerful and deeply challenging book Stanley argues that the notion of salvation found in many churches falls short of what Jesus and the rest of the Bible teaches. In particular, Jesus taught that our salvation is related to the godliness of our lives.


The contemporary Church needs to take Jesus' teaching on salvation far more seriously than it does.


Stanley shows that a proper understanding of salvation by faith and apart from 'works' does not mean that our works are not critical for our salvation.


This book will be an important resource for any Christian seeking to understand more of what God requires of those on the narrow road.


Pastors and teachers, too, will benefit from a comprehensive biblical theology on salvation.
