Acts 16:30  What Must I Do To Be Saved? 

It all started with Paul and Silas in prison. (v.23)
Our salvation has been born through others sorrows.
Christ’s sorrows were necessary for our salvation.

v.25) Their relationship with God overcame their circumstances.
         Their fellowship with others gave them strength.
         Their purpose in life was unwavered.

 Events that led to the prison keepers salvation.

v. 26) Natural Disastors
v. 27) Personal Problems
v. 28) Compassion and Concern from others.

• It’s not recorded that any of the prisoners got saved.
• Your actions can touch people you never thought about.

When God started working on the prison keeper

v. 29 He wanted out of darkness
         He sprang in…saw the immediate need
         He came trembling…conviction

v. 30) There must have been a seed planted in his life
v. 31-32) We quote v. 31, but what about v. 32?
v. 33) Baptism is still important.  It will not save, but it is scriptural.
v. 34) Salvation will yield results.

1.      Christian Fellowship outside the church
2.      Rejoicing in your faith.
3.      Sincerity.

 I.               Our Circumstances can lead to others salvation.
II.               God still saves in the old fashioned way.
III.             People still respond to salvation with fruit.
