Why Salvation is First?
Because the Bible is sharper than any two-edged Sword.
[Heb 4:12 KJV] 12 For the word of God [is] quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and [is] a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.

Being Berean
A note up front! I, Danvillie have been on this world 3/4 of a century. I am a believer in the Bible. Every Word is of GOD and for edification of believers. I have found the King James Bible my preferred choice as for accuracy and completeness. Furthermore, I am, in no way, gifted in any form. I do enjoy the Bible, and I thank God for his Grace to save a wretch like me. I do believe Faith and Faith Alone is the Only path to Salvation. When I say being berean, I only mean Study the Scriptures Daily, as in Act 17:10-12.
The phrase "being Berean" (or "to be a Berean") draws directly from the King James Bible in the New Testament, specifically Acts 17:11 (KJV):
"These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so."
This verse describes the Jews in the city of Berea (modern-day Veria in Greece) during the Apostle Paul's missionary journey. After facing opposition in Thessalonica, Paul and Silas went to Berea, where they preached in the synagogue. Unlike many in Thessalonica who reacted with hostility or closed-mindedness, the Bereans were commended for their noble (or "more fair-minded/open-minded") character. The key is to study scripture daily to be prepared to counter misstatement in this world. There are absolutes in our Faith in Christ, such as our Salvation being eternal. I believe that we can differ on other issues the KJ bible presents that we each may see differently depending on our walk,and I hope to discuss these points.
Key qualities of the Bereans in the KJV context:
- They received the word with all readiness of mind — They listened eagerly and openly to Paul's message about Jesus as the Messiah, without immediate rejection or prejudice.
- They searched the scriptures daily — They actively examined the Old Testament Scriptures (the only "Bible" available at the time) every day to verify if Paul's teachings aligned with God's written word.
- The result: Many believed, including Jews and prominent Greeks (Acts 17:12 KJV).
In modern Christian usage, "Being Berean" means adopting this same attitude: being teachable and eager to hear biblical teaching, while diligently testing or verifying everything against Scripture itself rather than blindly accepting what a preacher, teacher, tradition, or authority claims. It emphasizes personal responsibility in studying the Bible to confirm truth, often summarized as "search the Scriptures daily" to see "whether those things were so."
This has become a popular ideal among many Protestant and evangelical Christians, who see it as a model for discernment, avoiding deception, and grounding faith in the Bible alone (similar to the principle in 1 Thessalonians 5:21 KJV: "Prove all things; hold fast that which is good"). Many churches, Bible study groups, or ministries use "Berean" in their names to reflect this commitment to careful, daily Scripture examination.
In short, to "be Berean" as in the King James Bible is to approach God's word with humble openness combined with rigorous, daily personal investigation—noble because it honors Scripture as the ultimate authority.
