H.A. Ironside writes: Recently, while presenting the gospel on the streets in California, I was often interrupted like this: “Look here, sir. There are hundreds of religions in this country, and the followers of each think theirs the only right one. How can plain men like us find out what really is the truth?” “Hundreds of religions, you say? That’s strange; I’ve heard of only two.” “But you surely know there are more than that!” “No, sir. There are just two. The one covers all who expect salvation by doing; the other, all who have been saved by something done. So you see the whole question is very simple. Can you save yourself, or do you need a Savior? If you can be your own savior, you do not need my message. If you cannot, you may well listen to it.” When some asked Jesus, “What shall we do, that we might work the works of God?” (Jn 6:28) He answered, “This is the work of God, that you believe on Him whom [God] has sent” (v. 29). — The Only Two Religions, pp 5-6
