NASB | Romans 10:10 for with the heart a person believes, resulting in righteousness, and with the mouth he confesses, resulting in salvation. |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | Romans 10:10 For with the heart a person believes [in Christ as Savior] resulting in his justification [that is, being made righteous--being freed of the guilt of sin and made acceptable to God]; and with the mouth he acknowledges and confesses [his faith openly], resulting in and confirming [his] salvation. |
Bible Question (short): On what aspect it is enough |
Question (full): Few days ago, I had a dialogue with a brother on a situation that when it comes to the critical moment or time that the full gospel message (God, Christ, men, sin, God's wrath and justice, saving grace and faith, repentance and eternal life) cannot be preached to a dying person who has not heard of Christ nor is aware of sin, the most important thing is to get him to believe and profess Christ as his Lord and savior. This should be enough to get him saved. Now, my point is not on the dying person side that whether he/she ultimately saved or not, for this is solely of God's knowledge and will. My discussion would be on the messenger and the message part. Should we just REDUCE the full message as such even though we "consider" the dying person will stop his breath on the next second and we need to fight time for him? Most people might think we can rely on Romans 10:10 to justify the situation. However, I would hope when we say "believe and you will be saved", we should consider scriptural support PLUS the context of the scripture when it is used. Your thoughts (kindly please provide scriptural support for discussion)? Thank you Azure |
