2. That born again comes by confessing alone
Christianity is far from just being lip service. It is a faith that encompasses every part of our being. To say that “we’re Christian” alone does not mean that we now live a life in Christ. Even Romans 10:9 tells us that “…if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.”
More than just confessing with our mouths, we are to believe in our hearts, which will then result to a new way of life as we surrender to God and trust Him to do what’s best for us. That’s why it’s called faith. In Matthew 7:21, Jesus emphasized, “Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven.”
