What are some things that are not ambiguous?
Job 42:2I know that you can do anything, and no one can stop you.
Psalm 16:8I know the Lord is always with me. I will not be shaken, for he is right beside me.
Psalm 17:6I am praying to you because I know you will answer, O God. Bend down and listen as I pray.
Psalm 119:75I know, O Lord, that your regulations are fair; you disciplined me because I needed it.
Psalm 135:5I know the greatness of the Lord—that our Lord is greater than any other god.
Romans 8:38I am convinced that nothing can ever separate us from God’s love. Neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither our fears for today nor our worries about tomorrow—not even the powers of hell can separate us from God’s love.
Nothing is ambiguous about God’s character. That is certain. He is always loving, all-knowing, fair, all-powerful, attentive, and ever present.
Romans 3:30There is only one God, and he makes people right with himself only by faith, whether they are Jews or Gentiles.
Galatians 3:22The Scriptures declare that we are all prisoners of sin, so we receive God’s promise of freedom only by believing in Jesus Christ.
1 John 4:14-17We have seen with our own eyes and now testify that the Father sent his Son to be the Savior of the world. All who declare that Jesus is the Son of God have God living in them, and they live in God. We know how much God loves us, and we have put our trust in his love. God is love, and all who live in love live in God, and God lives in them. And as we live in God, our love grows more perfect. So we will not be afraid on the day of judgment, but we can face him with confidence because we live like Jesus here in this world.
1 John 5:20We know that the Son of God has come, and he has given us understanding so that we can know the true God. And now we live in fellowship with the true God because we live in fellowship with his Son, Jesus Christ. He is the only true God, and he is eternal life.
The Bible states without any ambiguity that God has provided only one path to eternal salvation and that is faith in his Son, Jesus Christ.
John 10:14, 27“I am the good shepherd; I know my own sheep, and they know me. . . . My sheep listen to my voice; I know them, and they follow me.”
1 John 2:3-6We can be sure that we know him if we obey his commandments. If someone claims, “I know God,” but doesn’t obey God’s commandments, that person is a liar and is not living in the truth. But those who obey God’s word truly show how completely they love him. That is how we know we are living in him. Those who say they live in God should live their lives as Jesus did.
1 John 3:7-10Dear children, don’t let anyone deceive you about this: When people do what is right, it shows that they are righteous, even as Christ is righteous. But when people keep on sinning, it shows that they belong to the devil, who has been sinning since the beginning. But the Son of God came to destroy the works of the devil. Those who have been born into God’s family do not make a practice of sinning, because God’s life is in them. So they can’t keep on sinning, because they are children of God. So now we can tell who are children of God and who are children of the devil. Anyone who does not live righteously and does not love other believers does not belong to God.
1 John 4:7-8Dear friends, let us continue to love one another, for love comes from God. Anyone who loves is a child of God and knows God. But anyone who does not love does not know God, for God is love.
1 John 4:20If someone says, “I love God,” but hates a fellow believer, that person is a liar; for if we don’t love people we can see, how can we love God, whom we cannot see?
As Christians, we belong to God—no ambiguity here. Our love relationship with God is sure. Our lives reflect our position as God’s children as we obey him.
Philippians 1:6I am certain that God, who began the good work within you, will continue his work until it is finally finished on the day when Christ Jesus returns.
1 John 2:27You have received the Holy Spirit, and he lives within you, so you don’t need anyone to teach you what is true. For the Spirit teaches you everything you need to know, and what he teaches is true—it is not a lie. So just as he has taught you, remain in fellowship with Christ.
1 John 4:13God has given us his Spirit as proof that we live in him and he in us.
God clearly states that the Holy Spirit lives in his followers. He continually and persistently teaches God’s truth.
1 John 5:13I have written this to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, so that you may know you have eternal life.
1 John 5:18We know that God’s children do not make a practice of sinning, for God’s Son holds them securely, and the evil one cannot touch them.
A Christian’s place in eternity is certain.
