believe in your heart God raised him from the
dead you will be saved. Does this mean we are
saved by faith alone? What does it mean to
confess Jesus is Lord?

Confessing Jesus as Lord

Lord and not do what I tell you? Mat 721 Not
everyone who says to me Lord Lord will enter the
kingdom of heaven but the one who does the will
of my Father in heaven.
