"If you declare 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 profess your faith and are saved. As Scripture says, “Anyone who believes in him will never be put to shame.”
Paul says that both believing and professing are important in being saved. So which is more important?
Which wing ...right or left is most important on an airplane? Answer: both are important!!!
Are you nervous about sharing your faith? This is a very common fear. Why? We don't want to be embarrassed....we don't want to embarrass our hearers. We fear we might offend....we might be misunderstood....there are many reasons. There is a great promise in verse 11. “Anyone who believes in him will never be put to shame.”
Wow...what a promise. This should spur us on to share our faith verbally....to "profess" our faith.
God's word says we will never be put to shame. What a guarantee from God.
