THE WAY OF SALVATION (Part 1)

God has a Plan

Each of us, according to the Bible, has his or her part in a plan which was conceived in the mind of God before the world began. (Eph. 3:9-11) This plan was set in motion at creation (Gen. 1:1; Gen. 1:27), and will reach fruition when the Son of God is joined with His eternal companion (corporate, redeemed humanity) in what the Scriptures call "the marriage of the Lamb." (Revelation 19:6-9; Rev. 21:2-3) The ultimate purpose of this plan is for the glory of God, as the Shorter Catechism says:

Q. 1. What is the chief end of man?
A. Man's chief end is to glorify God, and to enjoy Him for ever. (Romans 11:36)
