And every day the Lord added to the church those who were to be saved.&#8217; Acts 2:47 ACF Bible online So The Word that is written in all Bibles, and which is read in many places around the world &#8211; despite the different translations and ways of teaching &#8211; contains these teachings. If you think you don&#8217;t need to do something that is written, please consider it very well. Because in God&#8217;s love and salvation, fear must not enter, because fear prevents us from acting &#8211; but love saves us, and opens the door to the Kingdom of God&#8230; &#8216;For the kingdom of God is not eating and drinking, but righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit.&#8217; Romans 14:17 ACF Bible online","og_url":"https:\/\/vivervida.blog\/en\/are-you-saved-yet-09\/","og_site_name":"vivervida.blog","article_published_time":"2025-01-08T21:59:19+00:00","article_modified_time":"2025-01-31T00:19:26+00:00","og_image":[{"url":"https:\/\/vivervida.blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/IMG_20181025_184809-scaled-e1736373208682.jpg","type":"","width":"","height":""}],"author":"Escritora Portuguesa","twitter_card":"summary_large_image","twitter_misc":{"Written by":"Escritora Portuguesa","Est. reading time":"3 minutes"},"schema":{"@context":"https:\/\/schema.org","@graph":[{"@type":"Article","@id":"https:\/\/vivervida.blog\/en\/are-you-saved-yet-09\/#article","isPartOf":{"@id":"https:\/\/vivervida.blog\/en\/are-you-saved-yet-09\/"},"author":{"name":"Escritora Portuguesa","@id":"https:\/\/vivervida.blog\/en\/#\/schema\/person\/f5b8d053d80f4a3136ffcfedfdab8959"},"headline":"Are You Already Saved?
