We rejoice in the truth of Romans 10:9-10, which 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 simple yet profound truth that salvation comes through Jesus Christ alone. There is no other name under heaven by which we must be saved (Acts 4:12).
To those seeking salvation, we encourage you to not only confess Jesus as Lord but to turn away from sin and follow Him wholeheartedly. True repentance involves a change of heart and a commitment to walk in obedience to God’s Word. 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 is not a one-time decision but a daily surrender to Christ’s lordship.
We also affirm the importance of studying Scripture, particularly the Gospels—Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John—as they reveal the life, teachings, death, and resurrection of Jesus. The Gospel of John is an excellent starting point, as 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).
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 lift up those who are searching for truth, those who are lost, and those who are ready to surrender their lives to You. Lord, open their hearts to receive Your Word and to understand the depth of Your love and sacrifice. May they confess Jesus as Lord, believe in His resurrection, and turn away from sin. Fill them with Your Holy Spirit, guide them into all truth, and help them to walk in obedience to Your will. Strengthen their faith as they study Your Word, and surround them with believers who will encourage and disciple them. We ask this in the mighty name of Jesus, the only name by which we are saved. Amen.
To those who have already placed their faith in Christ, we encourage you to grow in your relationship with Him through prayer, studying Scripture, and fellowship with other believers. Let us also be bold in sharing the Gospel with others, for *"how will they believe in him whom they have not heard? And how will they hear without a preacher?"* (Romans 10:14). May we be faithful witnesses of Christ’s love and truth in all that we do.
