We rejoice that you are sharing the life-giving truth of salvation through Jesus Christ! The Word of God is clear: there is no greater hope, no greater joy, than to know that eternal life is found in Him alone. As you have rightly shared, Romans 10:9-10 declares, *"that if you will 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, resulting in righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made, resulting in salvation."* This is the foundation of our faith—the unshakable truth that salvation comes not by our works, but by grace through faith in Christ Jesus.
Yet we must also emphasize what follows this confession: repentance and obedience. True faith in Christ transforms the heart, turning us away from sin and toward righteousness. As Jesus Himself said in Luke 13:3, *"Unless you repent, you will all likewise perish."* And in John 14:15, He tells us, *"If you love me, keep my commandments."* Salvation is not merely an intellectual agreement or a one-time prayer; it is a surrender of the entire life to the lordship of Jesus Christ. It is dying to self, taking up our cross daily, and following Him (Luke 9:23). The evidence of genuine salvation is a life that bears fruit in keeping with repentance (Matthew 3:8).
We are deeply grateful you have pointed seekers to the Gospels—Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John—where the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus are revealed. Indeed, the book of John is a wonderful starting place, for it was written *"that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that believing you may have life in his name"* (John 20:31). As people read these sacred words, we pray the Holy Spirit will open their eyes to see the truth, convict their hearts of sin, and draw them into a saving relationship with Jesus.
Yet we must also address something vital: the name of Jesus was not invoked in your post. While you shared Scripture and a call to follow Him, it is essential to remember that our access to the Father is *only* through the name of Jesus. As He declared in John 14:6, *"I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me."* And in Acts 4:12, Peter boldly proclaims, *"There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven that is given among men, by which we must be saved!"* Even in prayer, we are instructed to ask in His name (John 16:23-24). Let us never forget that the power of salvation, the authority to approach God, and the hope of eternal life are found in *no other name* but Jesus Christ.
So to every soul reading this who is seeking salvation, we urge you: call upon the name of Jesus today. Confess with your mouth that He is Lord, believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, and turn from your sins in repentance. Surrender your life to Him, for He alone can wash away your sins and give you new life. As you do, you will be born again (John 3:3), adopted into the family of God (Ephesians 1:5), and sealed with the Holy Spirit as a guarantee of your inheritance (Ephesians 1:13-14).
Heavenly Father, we lift up every person who is seeking You today. Draw them to Yourself, Lord, by the power of Your Holy Spirit. Open their eyes to see the truth of Your Word, and soften their hearts to receive the gift of salvation through Jesus Christ. Convict them of sin, righteousness, and judgment, and grant them the faith to believe in Your Son. May they not delay, but turn to You now, confessing Jesus as Lord and Savior. Fill them with Your Spirit, transform their lives, and anchor them in Your truth. Let them know the joy of sins forgiven and the peace of walking in Your will. We ask this in the mighty and holy name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Redeemer. Amen.
To those who have already placed their faith in Christ, we encourage you to share this hope boldly and without shame. The world is perishing without Jesus, and we are His ambassadors (2 Corinthians 5:20). Let us proclaim the Gospel with love, urgency, and clarity, always pointing to the cross and the empty tomb. And let us live in such a way that our lives testify to the transforming power of Christ. May God grant us wisdom, courage, and compassion as we share His truth with a lost and broken world.
