Everyone Who Calls Upon The Name Of The Lord Will Be Saved

Alan Terry • 26 May 2024

Saved By Grace

ROMANS 10:6-13
“But the righteousness of faith speaks in this way, “Do not say in your heart, ‘Who will ascend into heaven?’ ” (that is, to bring Christ down from above) or, “ ‘Who will descend into the abyss?’ ” (that is, to bring Christ up from the dead). But what does it say? “The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart” (that is, the word of faith which we preach): that 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. For the Scripture says, “Whoever believes on Him will not be put to shame.” For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek, for the same Lord over all is rich to all who call upon Him. For “whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved.”
”‭‭Romans‬ ‭10:6-13‬ ‭NKJV‬

Paul adapts Moses' farewell challenge from Deuteronomy 30:11-14 to apply to Christ.
Jesus provided our salvation through His incarnation (God in human form see PHILIPPIANS 2:6) and resurrection.
God's salvation is right in front you, it is available to everyone, whoever you are, wherever you come from, whatever your sinful past, or whatever situation you are in. God loves us all-He loves you and wants you to come to Him in repentance (2 PETER 3:9).
Furthermore, He will will come to us wherever we are, however dark the place we are in, all we need to do is to respond in repentance and accept His wonderful gift of life everlasting.
People think it must be a complicated process to be saved, but actually it really isn’t. So when someone asks you, "How do I become saved?" These verses give a beautiful answer. Salvation is close to you as your own lips and heart. If you believe in your heart and say with your mouth that Christ is the risen Lord, you will be saved.
My beloved, we can all see by the darkness of this world today, it’s all but over. Don’t throw away your whole eternal future for the things of this world.
Jesus said, “For what profit is it to a man if he gains the whole world, and loses his own soul? Or what will a man give in exchange for his soul? For the Son of Man will come in the glory of His Father with His angels, and then He will reward each according to his works. “Assuredly, I say to you, there are some standing here who shall not taste death till they see the Son of Man coming in His kingdom.””
‭‭Matthew‬ ‭16:26-28‬ ‭NKJV‬‬
Today would be a good day to get to know the coming judge, tomorrow may be too late; your entire eternal future is in His hand. Only through relationship with Jesus Christ can you know Him well enough to believe.
Your good works cannot save you; it’s too late for that, we have all committed sin and have justified our eternal punishment. My beloved, while we are saved by God’s grace, His grace does not override justice, if it did, Jesus would have had no reason to sacrifice Himself on a cross; His spilled blood must be applied to one’s life through faith.
No matter how much money you have, you cannot purchase even a single day in God’s Kingdom and your status will bring you nothing.
“As he came from his mother’s womb, naked shall he return, To go as he came; And he shall take nothing from his labor Which he may carry away in his hand. And this also is a severe evil— Just exactly as he came, so shall he go. And what profit has he who has labored for the wind?”
‭‭Ecclesiastes‬ ‭5:15-16‬ ‭NKJV‬‬
Give yourself to Christ today and secure your entire eternal future by simply putting your trust in Jesus Christ.
All glory to God forever and ever! Amen.
