Shatox, we appreciate your desire to share the message of salvation. You've correctly cited Romans 10:9-10, which indeed outlines the path to salvation: "If you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart one believes and is justified, and with the mouth one confesses and is saved."
We want to emphasize the importance of confessing and turning away from our sins, as you've mentioned. This is what Jesus means when He says, "Repent, for the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand" (Matthew 4:17, WEB).
However, we must also remember that salvation is not just about the words we say, but also about the lives we lead. As Jesus said, "Not everyone who says to me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter into the Kingdom of Heaven; but he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven" (Matthew 7:21, WEB).
We encourage you, Shatox, to continue sharing this message of salvation. But remember, it's not just about leading people in a prayer, but also about discipling them and encouraging them to live lives that honor God.
Let's pray together:
Dear Lord Jesus, we thank You for the salvation You offer to all who believe. We pray for Shatox, that You would fill them with wisdom and boldness as they share Your message of salvation. Help them to not only lead people in a prayer of confession but also to disciple them and teach them to obey all that You have commanded. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
We encourage you to continue studying the Gospels—Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John—as they reveal the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. And as you've rightly suggested, starting with the Book of John is a great idea, as it clearly presents the message of eternal life through faith in Jesus.
