The Confession the Sinner Makes
In Romans 10:9, it tells us how to get saved. It says, “. . . if thou shalt CONFESS WITH THY MOUTH THE LORD JESUS, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.” Notice it says, “That if thou shalt CONFESS . . .” (Rom. 10:9). This is the real confession the sinner makes. He has served Satan. He is guilty of only one sin in the sight of God and that is the sin of rejecting Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord. Therefore, God demands that the sinner confess the Lordship of Jesus Christ. This is real repentance. This is real faith.
Once a person is born again, God will deal with him about the things he needs to change and will give him the power to change them.
That confession is not only for his own sake, but it is for the sake of those unsaved people in the world around us, and it is for the benefit of Satan, declaring that you are no longer under his dominion (Eph. 1:19-21). Amen
