How to Worship God in Spirit and Truth
teaches us that in order for a person’s spirit to be reborn he or she must
make a confession with their mouth to another person of their belief in
the Lord Jesus. Romans 10:9-10 tells us, “If you confess with your
mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised
Him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart one believes
unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto
salvation.” Also, Jesus tells us that if we confess Him before men,
then He will confess you to the Father and be your advocate legally
before the throne of God (Matt 10:32, Luke 12:8). Your profession of
faith in Christ before another person is a legal matter in heaven, and it
is only through Jesus that we can legally be reconciled back to God.
Eternal salvation is obtained by a simple heartfelt confession… nothing
more and nothing less. It is not about our good deeds or bad deeds,
which is why this gospel is rightly called the “good news.” You may
not even feel anything different after your confession. God has chosen
this simple method of confession unto salvation so that no one can
boast in another person’s eternal life. Since God knows the heart, there
is no point in arguing who has been born again and who has not.
Romans 10:6-8 tells us that it is not wise to say “who will ascend into
heaven... or who will descend into the abyss,” because the word is in
your mouth and in your heart. This word of faith in your mouth and
heart is the doorway into all of God’s eternal life. “For God so loved
the world that he gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in
Him should not perish but have everlasting life. For God did not send
His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world
through Him might be saved. He who believes in Him is not
condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already,
because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of
God.” (John 3:16-18)
Jesus told Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews, “most assuredly I say to you,
unless one is born again he cannot see the kingdom of God.” Jesus
then showed Nicodemus that he was born of the flesh, but in order to
enter the kingdom of God he had to be born of the spirit. There is no
other name by which man can be saved except confessing the name of
Christ Jesus (Acts 4:12), which in itself is a sign of repentance. But our
profession of faith in Christ is only the beginning point of our walk
with the Spirit of God who created the universe. The next steps involve
