But what does it say?  "The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart: (that is, the word of faith which we preach):  That if you CONFESS WITH YOUR MOUTH the Lord Jesus and BELIEVE IN YOUR HEART that God has raised Him from the dead, YOU WILL BE SAVED.  For with the heart one BELIEVES unto righteousness, and with the mouth CONFESSION is made unto salvation.  For "whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved."  Romans 10:8-10, 13 NKJV

 

Dear Friend,

     Receiving salvation is the easiest yet most profound decision you'll ever make in your life.  Salvation is easy because it's a free gift. 
Eph. 2:8-9 "For by grace are you saved through faith and that not of yourselves it is the gift of God not of works lest any man should boast."  Grace is God's part and faith is your part.  God has already supplied for your every need by grace.  All you have to do is receive it by faith.  In other words faith is not God responding to you but you responding to Him.  Faith does not move God, God has already moved by grace.  Faith moves you into a position to receive what God has already provided.


    
The gift He has provided is salvation and it is free. Salvation has nothing to do with you and what you have done.  It has to do with Jesus and what He has done.  Did you know that your sins are not sending you to hell?  Sins are not the issue in salvation, faith in Jesus alone is.  According to (2 Cor. 5:19), the good news is that God is no longer counting the sins of the world against them.  Hallelujah!  God is not counting your sins!  I know that sounds too good to be true but that's why it's called "the good news."  The reason God is not counting your sins against you is because He already counted them against Jesus.  We are told in (2 Cor. 5:21) that "He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us that we might be made the righteousness of God in Him."

    The way to receive salvation is simple because Jesus did all the work for us.  All He requires is that we believe in Him and what He did. 
Romans 10:9-10 states "that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead you shall be saved.  For with the heart man believes unto righteousness and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation."  If you believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God, that He died on the cross for you, bore your sins, and was raised from the dead then confess that with your mouth, you are saved.  Remember it is not of works lest any man should boast.  If someone asks you how do you know you're saved tell them because I believe in Jesus.  You're not saved any other way but by faith in the Lord Jesus Christ alone.

     If you have confessed Jesus Christ as your Lord today, please

God Bless you,


Pastor Stephen Robbins
