How do you save your soul?

Answer 1

God is the only one who can save your soul . He gave his son to die on the cross for everyone's sin. If you don't believe this he will not save. If you do believe this you need to ask the Lord to forgive you for your sins and save your soul. Your soul is going to spend eternity in either heaven or hell. If you are saved you go to heaven, if you are not you go to hell. The Catholic Church teaches that one must have a profound fundamental belief in the doctrine that Christ was the Son of God, which requires an unquestioning faith in His being whom he said he was. Christ said many times that he was "The Way" ... meaning the way to Heaven. In other words, without a fundamental understanding of Christ's purpose on earth, of who He was and what He represented it is mightily difficult to have the necessary faith. Consequently, He said often, in various different ways, "Come to know thy God" ... meaning we must learn and understand about God before we can hope to have faith. Regularly reading the New Testament goes a long way towards lighting the fires of understanding and towards kindling a faith in God. Christ's Ressurection from the dead and his Ascension into Heaven are, in particualar, the quintessential proof of his ethereal and spiritual omnipotence. The fundamental tenets of the Catholic faith are crystalised in the Apostles' Creed and recited at every Mass. The Creed is considered to be the Rule of Faith, the Symbol of the Apostles, which the Catholic Church always preserves and maintains inviolate. Catholics believe that to understand and believe the tenets of faith expressed in The Creed, offers a good chance of saving your soul.
