All Men Are Sinful.

 

SALVATION

Why do all men need to be saved?

[NOTE: In doing these worksheets, take time to look up all the verses that are listed even if you think you know the answer.  It is important to look at the verse, even if you have already read and looked at the verse scores of times.  Don't say to yourself, "I already know that verse."  Instead say, "I need to know that verse better. Lord, teach me. Show me something I've never seen before."  Read the verses carefully and always find your answer in the verse. In this way you will learn exactly what the Bible teaches. The question that you should constantly be asking yourself is this: "WHAT SAITH THE SCRIPTURE?" – see Romans 4:3]

According to Luke 5:31, what kind of people need a doctor? _____________________ What kind of people do not need a doctor? ______________________________ Read Luke 5:32. Do righteous men need to be saved? _______ What kind of a person needs a Saviour? _____________________

Why did Jesus come into the world?

Here are four verses that answer this question:

According to Luke 5:32, Jesus came into the world to save what kind of people? _______________________ Righteous people do not need to be saved. But read Romans 3:10. How many righteous people are there? ___________ Therefore, how many people need to be saved? ___________________ Read Luke 5:30 and then circle the right answer:

All men need to be saved because they are sinful.

1)  Psalm 14:1-3 (see also Psalm 53:1-3).

According to verse 2 of Psalm 14, who was it that looked down upon the children of men? ________________ According to verse 3, how many good and righteous men and women did He find? _____________ As other people look at us and examine the way we live, we may appear to be righteous and good and kind. Read 1 Samuel 16:7. Does God see as a man sees? _________ "for man looks _____________________________________ but the LORD looks ___________________________." Read Hebrews 4:13. Can we hide anything from the eyes of God? ______ Therefore, we must see ourselves as God sees us!

2)  Romans 3:l0-l8 and Romans 3:23

As we read Romans 3:10-18 we discover how sinful we really are in the eyes of God!

Verse 10–How many righteous men are there? _______________

Verse 11–How many men understand and seek after God? _______________

What kind of a person needs a Saviour? __________________ Therefore, what kind of a person was Mary? ____________________ Does Romans 3:23 include the virgin Mary? __________ ]

From what we have learned in Romans 3:10-18 and Romans 3:23, how many men and women, boys and girls need to be saved? __________________________

3)  1 Kings 8:46. How many men are there who never sin? _________________ "For there is no man who_____________    ____" including _____________________(write your own name!).

4)   1 John 1:8-10. In these verses John is writing to believers (saved people). According to verse 8, if we say that we have no sin, who are we really fooling? ___________________ In verse 10, if we say that we have not sinned, we make God a ____________(read 1 John 5:10). Whenever we do not believe God’s Word we make God a___________.  That is, by not believing what God has said, we are really accusing God of being a liar!  If 1 John 1:8 and 1 John 1:10 are true for believers (and they are!), do you think these verses are true for the unsaved also? __________
