Subject: Are we presenting the gospel scripturaly |
Bible Note: Greetings Doc! The article that you cited seemed to make much of the 'form' of the prayer as well. Obviously, nothing that we do saves us, but God's grace is accessed through prayer. Rom. 10:13 tells us - "for, ‘‘Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.”" So, however someone calls on the Lord, I believe that God will answer the truly repentant cry of the lost.
