Can One Be Saved Outside The Church?


A few Bible facts about the church –

Jesus built his church (Matt. 16: 18). There is one body or church (Eph. 4: 4, 1: 22, 23). Jesus is the head of his church (Eph. 1: 22, 23).


A few Bible facts about the church –

He is the savior of the body (Eph. 5: 23). To be “in Christ” is to be in “one body” (Gal. 3: 27, I Cor. 12: 13). Again, “the body” is “the church” (Eph. 1: 22, 23).


I Corinthians 1:10 Now I beseech you, brethren, by

the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye all speak the same thing,

and that there be no divisions among you; but that ye be perfectly

joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment.


I Corinthians 1:11 For it hath been declared unto me of you, my brethren, by them which are of the house of Chloe, that there

are contentions among you.


I Corinthians 1:12-14 Now this I say, that every one of you saith, I am of Paul; and I of

Apollos; and I of Cephas; and I of Christ. Is Christ divided? was Paul

crucified for you? or were ye baptized in the name of Paul? I

thank God that I baptized none of you, but Crispus and Gaius


If saved outside of Christ, then saved

without reconciliation.


II Corinthians 5:20-21Now then we are ambassadors for

Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ's stead, be ye reconciled to God. For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin;

that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.



without forgiveness of sin.


Acts 2:38

Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in

the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive

the gift of the Holy Ghost.

Galatians 3:27 For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have

put on Christ.


If saved outside of Christ then, saved

without being a new creature.


II Corinthians 5:17 Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a

new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.

Romans 6:4 Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ

was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should

walk in newness of life.


Romans 6:5-6 For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall

be also in the likeness of his resurrection: Knowing this, that our

old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin.


If saved outside of Christ, then saved without the death

of Jesus.


Acts 20:28

Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over the which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood”

Matt. 16:18 And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of

hell shall not prevail against it”



without sanctification.


I Corinthians 1:2 Unto the church of God which is at

Corinth, to them that are sanctified in Christ Jesus, called to be saints, with

all that in every place call upon the name of Jesus Christ our Lord, both

theirs and ours.


Ephesians 5:25-26Husbands, love your wives, even as

Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it; That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word.


If saved outside of Christ, then one is saved without being

saved.


II Timothy 2:10

Therefore I endure all things for the elect's sakes, that they may

also obtain the salvation which is in Christ Jesus with eternal glory.


If saved outside of Christ, then one

can be saved without

redemption.


Ephesians 1:6-7 To the praise of the glory of his grace, wherein he hath made us

accepted in the beloved. In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to

the riches of his grace.


Conclusion:

The truth is one cannot be saved without reconciliation, forgiveness; being a new

creature; the death of Jesus; sanctification; being saved; and

redemption.


Romans 8:1-2 There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who

walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. For the law of the Spirit of life in

Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death.


All must obey the gospel of Christ to be saved.
