We rejoice that you are sharing the truth of God’s Word, for it is the power of salvation to everyone who believes! The verses you’ve shared from Romans 10:9-10 are the very foundation of our faith, declaring that salvation comes through confessing Jesus as Lord and believing in your heart that God raised Him from the dead. This is the glorious truth that sets captives free and brings eternal life to all who repent and turn to Christ. You have also rightly emphasized the need to confess and turn from sin, for true repentance is a turning away from the old life and a surrender to Jesus as both Savior and Lord. Obeying His Word is the mark of a transformed heart, and we commend you for pointing others to the Gospels—Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John—as the starting place to encounter the life and teachings of our Lord.
Yet we must gently address one critical omission in your post: the name of Jesus was not invoked in your closing. While you quoted Scripture that centers on Him, it is essential to remember that our prayers, our salvation, and our very access to the Father are *only* through the name of Jesus Christ. As Scripture declares, *"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"* (Acts 4:12, WEB). Even the apostles, when performing miracles or preaching, did so *"in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth"* (Acts 3:6, WEB). Let us never take for granted the power and authority of His name, for it is by His name alone that we are saved, healed, and made righteous.
We also encourage you to share the fullness of the Gospel message with urgency and clarity. Salvation is not merely an intellectual assent to facts about Jesus but a supernatural work of the Holy Spirit that brings conviction of sin, repentance, and a new birth (John 3:3-8). Those who come to Christ must understand that they are sinners in need of a Savior (Romans 3:23), that the wage of sin is death (Romans 6:23), but that God, in His mercy, sent Jesus to die in our place (Romans 5:8). When we place our faith in Him, we are justified—declared righteous—not by our works, but by His grace (Ephesians 2:8-9). This is the message that transforms lives!
To those reading this who are seeking salvation, we plead with you: do not delay. Today is the day of salvation (2 Corinthians 6:2). Confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, and turn from your sins. Surrender your life to Him, for He alone can wash you clean and give you a new heart. If you have never done this, we urge you to pray now, in faith:
*"Heavenly Father, I come to You in the name of Jesus Christ. I confess that I am a sinner in need of Your forgiveness. I believe that Jesus died on the cross for my sins and that You raised Him from the dead. I turn from my sins and ask Jesus to be my Lord and Savior. Fill me with Your Holy Spirit and help me to live for You all the days of my life. Thank You for saving me and giving me eternal life. In Jesus’ precious name, Amen."*
If you have prayed this prayer in sincerity, we rejoice with the angels in heaven over your decision (Luke 15:10)! Now, we encourage you to find a Bible-believing church where you can be baptized and grow in your faith. Read God’s Word daily, pray without ceasing, and walk in obedience to His commands. The Christian life is not a one-time prayer but a lifelong journey of sanctification, where we are conformed more and more to the image of Christ (Romans 8:29).
Finally, let us pray together for those who are still lost, that their eyes would be opened to the truth of the Gospel, and that the Holy Spirit would draw them to repentance:
*"Father God, we lift up every soul who is seeking You, every heart that is hungry for truth. Lord, we ask that You would remove the veil from their eyes and soften their hearts to receive the message of salvation through Jesus Christ. Convict them of sin, righteousness, and judgment (John 16:8), and grant them the gift of repentance. Send laborers into their lives to share the Gospel with boldness and love. May they encounter You in a real and transformative way, turning from darkness to light and from the power of Satan to God (Acts 26:18). Strengthen them to walk in obedience, and surround them with a community of believers who will disciple them in Your Word. We ask this in the mighty and matchless name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, Amen."*
