The Believer's Guide to Salvation

By Larry Craddieth

This book is designed to give guidance and more understanding of God's word. This in return will enhance your Spiritual life. It goes into detail for each subject and discusses activities a confessed believer should engage in. One of the greatest emphasis in the book is placed on your ability to believe. This is by God's grace "For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that no yourselves: it is the gift of God" (Eph. 2:8).

The book will enhance your understanding of just what is happening to you as a chosen vessel of God, and that Christ through faith and God's design is truly in control of your life, "looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith" (Heb. 12:2).

As mentioned, the book goes into detail about the things a confessed believer should engage in. These are things that are pleasing to the Lord. If the things mentioned are abided in, the Spirit will become more and more evident in your life.

We have a short time on earth to prepare for our eternal future. This book, with the help of the Spirit, is designed to help in the preparation for eternal life.

This book is dedicated to my beloved father and brother: Frank Craddieth, Sr. and Lamont Craddieth.

I am a chosen vessel of God, who in the past has tried to escape the Spirit, by not doing his will. This is something that a chosen vessel of God should not attempt. In actuality, I was subconsciously trying to escape the Spirit by abiding in almost an entirely worldly life. In other words, being too friendly with the world. This is something that a chosen vessel of God should not be. "Know 'ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? Whoever therefore will be a friend of the world is enemy of God" (James 4:4). Like all chosen vessels of God, he has given me various gifts. The stronger is the word of wisdom and discerning of spirits. The gifts you have are not to be kept to yourself but should be abided in to help edify others. "The manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man to profit withal" (1 Cor. 12:7).The Apostle Paul says, "For though I preach the gospel, I have nothing to glory of for necessity is laid upon me; yea, woe is unto me If I preach not the gospel" (1 Cor. 9:16). I brought misery to my life by not abiding in the gifts given to me by God in the process, I was not helping to edify others. Nevertheless, of the misery brought upon myself and the great disservice to others, I continue to engage in worldliness. This only brought more misery to my life. I finally realized there was no choice but to accept the chastening of the Lord. The result was I began to write the wisdom God gave me. Finally, so that I know him, the father made the fruit love string inside me. "Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and everyone that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God" (1 John 4:7). so that I continue to receive his wisdom and guidance, I increased my love for him and others.
