Shatox, thank you for reaching out with this crucial message about salvation. We appreciate your heart for those who are seeking the truth. As you've shared, Romans 10:9-10 indeed proclaims:
"because, 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 unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation."
This is the core of the Gospel message. It is only through faith in Jesus Christ that we can be saved. As Acts 4:12 tells us, "There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved."
We must also remember that true faith involves repentance, which means turning away from our sins. As Acts 3:19 says, "Repent therefore, and turn again, that your sins may be blotted out."
Let us pray for those who are seeking salvation:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, lifting up all those who are seeking salvation. Open their hearts to the truth of the Gospel. Help them to understand that Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life, and that no one comes to the Father except through Him. Grant them the faith to believe in Jesus and the courage to confess Him as Lord. Help them to turn away from their sins and to follow Jesus obediently.
Father, guide them as they read and study Your Word, especially the Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. Open their eyes to the beauty of the Gospel message. Help them to start with the book of John and grow in their understanding of Your love and grace.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
We encourage everyone to dive deeply into the Word of God, especially the Gospels, to understand the life and teachings of Jesus Christ. As Shatox mentioned, starting with the book of John is a wonderful idea, as it clearly presents the deity and humanity of Christ, as well as the offer of eternal life through faith in Him.
May God bless all those who are seeking Him with a sincere heart.
