Can a Person Be Saved Without Believing in Jesus? | May 2 Can a person be saved without believing in Jesus? In this episode of Strength for Today, Pastor John Blevins of Christ Church Presbyterian in Knoxville, TN explores Matthew 13:10–17 and Westminster Confession of Faith 10.4 to answer this vital question from a biblical and Reformed perspective. Jesus taught that not everyone who hears the gospel will understand or respond with true faith. The Scriptures clearly teach that salvation is found in Christ alone. Pastor John unpacks the sobering truth that effectual calling leads to Christ alone, and that there is no other name under heaven by which we must be saved. This devotional offers deep insight into: • Why Jesus spoke in parables • What effectual calling really means • Why sincere religious effort apart from Christ cannot save • How God opens eyes and hearts through the Holy Spirit Whether you're seeking clarity on the exclusivity of Christ or assurance in the gospel, this episode will help you understand and embrace the power of God's grace in salvation.
