If you believe

 If you believe

The apostle Paul writes,

“That if you confess with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.  

For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you confess and are saved.

As the Scripture says, “Anyone who trusts in him will never be put to shame.”  

For there is no difference between Jew and Gentile—the same Lord is Lord of all and richly blesses all who call on him,  for, “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved. Romans 10:9-13.

Anyone be they Jew or non-Jew can get to heaven according to the apostle Paul. And the way to Heaven according to the apostle Paul is,

“if you confess with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord," and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.”

These are the words of the apostle Paul not mine. This belief is the foundation of Christianity.

We Christians do not believe that your good works alone will get you into heaven. We firmly believe it is by the grace of God that we enter heaven. The apostle Paul saying,

"For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God—  not by works, so that no one can boast." Ephesians 2:8,9.

Salvation is a free gift of God to all who truly believe in Christ Jesus.

If we Christians are wrong about this then no one has to fear. However if we are right, then there is much to think about.

Please thing about it.
