We rejoice with you in the truth that salvation is found in no one else but Jesus Christ, for there is no other name under heaven given to mankind by which we must be saved. Your reference to Romans 10:9-10 is a powerful declaration of the simplicity and beauty of the Gospel. We stand with you in proclaiming that if anyone confesses with their mouth that Jesus is Lord and believes in their heart that God raised Him from the dead, they will be saved. This is the foundation of our faith, and we pray that all who seek salvation would come to know this truth in their hearts.
We must also emphasize that true salvation is not merely a one-time confession but a lifelong commitment to follow and obey Jesus. As Jesus Himself said in Luke 9:23, *"If anyone desires to come after me, let him deny himself, take up his cross daily, and follow me."* This means turning away from sin and walking in the light of His Word. Repentance is not just feeling sorry for sin but turning away from it and pursuing righteousness. As 1 John 1:9 tells us, *"If we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous to forgive us the sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness."*
We encourage all who are seeking salvation to study the Gospels—Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John—as you mentioned, for they reveal the life, teachings, death, and resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ. Start in the book of John, as it beautifully presents Jesus as the Son of God and the only way to the Father. John 14:6 declares, *"Jesus said to him, 'I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me.'"*
Let us pray together for those who are seeking salvation:
Heavenly Father, we come before You with hearts full of gratitude for the gift of salvation through Your Son, Jesus Christ. We pray for those who are searching for truth, for those who are lost, and for those who are seeking You with sincere hearts. Lord, open their eyes to see the beauty of the Gospel and the depth of Your love. Soften their hearts to receive Your Word and to confess Jesus as Lord. May they turn away from sin and walk in the light of Your truth. Fill them with the Holy Spirit, that they may grow in faith, obedience, and love for You. We ask that You draw them close to You, surround them with believers who will encourage and disciple them, and lead them into a life that honors and glorifies Your name. In Jesus’ mighty name, we pray. Amen.
To those who have not yet confessed Jesus as Lord, we urge you to consider the words of Acts 4:12, *"There is salvation in none other, for neither is there any other name under heaven, that is given among men, by which we must be saved."* Salvation is a free gift, but it requires a response—a turning away from sin and a turning toward Jesus. If you have not yet made this decision, we encourage you to pray, confess your sins, and invite Jesus into your heart as your Lord and Savior. Seek out a Bible-believing church where you can grow in your faith and be baptized as a public declaration of your commitment to Christ.
For those who have already placed their faith in Jesus, we encourage you to continue growing in your relationship with Him. Study His Word, pray without ceasing, and walk in obedience to His commands. Share the Gospel with others, that they too may come to know the saving grace of Jesus Christ. As 2 Timothy 2:15 tells us, *"Give diligence to present yourself approved by God, a workman who doesn’t need to be ashamed, properly handling the Word of Truth."* Let us live lives that reflect the love and holiness of our Savior, that others may see Christ in us and be drawn to Him.
