When you believe it that settles it forever

Glorified Jesus

We have altar calls and bring people up around the altar. That's a—a good tradition of the church, but in the Bible time, “As many as believed on the Lord…” just accepted Him, wherever He was. “As many as believed, was saved.
They had no altar calls. That first originated in the Methodist, around the early Methodist church is coming to the altar. It's a good thing. We should never let it go. Keep it up. I think it's a good thing. Come out there, pour your heart out before God. That's the way to do it. But really, that isn't what saves you. You could stay there at the altar, and pray all night long, cry, walk up-and-down the altar. You could do every penance you could. You could sell everything you got and give to the poor. You could go on a fast for forty days and get so—so wore out from fasting till you just couldn't walk, and never do you any good, until first, you accept… That's it. It's your part. God's did His part. Now, you do your part, just a simple thing of believing it. And when you believe it, that settles it forever.
Now, you can believe it mentally, and you'll still guess at it. But when you believe from your heart once, that settles it forever.

Daily Bread Acts 13:39
And by him all that believe are justified from all things, from which ye could not be justified by the law of Moses.
