“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.” Romans 10 does not leave room for foggy answers, and we lean into that clarity as we continue the From Guilty to Glory series. We talk about the right way to be right with God, and why the gospel is not about building a résumé of goodness, but receiving Christ’s righteousness by faith.

We also slow down and define what the Bible means by confessing “Jesus is Lord.” It’s more than agreeing that Jesus exists or that He has authority somewhere out there. Saving faith includes a deep personal conviction that Jesus is my sovereign Lord, the One I trust for salvation and the One I submit to. That’s why Scripture can warn that even demons believe true facts about God; correct theology without repentance and surrender is not the same as being saved.

Then we focus on the resurrection of Jesus Christ as the supreme validation of His ministry and His victory over sin, death, and Satan. If God did not raise Jesus from the dead, there is no salvation and no hope. But because He did, “whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved” is a promise wide enough for anyone and strong enough for every failure.
