Defining Salvation: Faith and Surrender
Does surrender save you? I realize that question might have startled you, because it's rather upfront and to the point. Recently I had the privilege of spending time with someone who was struggling with this question. She had prayed to receive Christ rather recently. In the time since she'd done that, she had heard the phrase, "surrender your life to Christ" in reference to salvation. "I don't know if I'm going to heaven," she said to me with a look of fear on her face, "because I don't know that I've given Jesus everything."
