From Linda: Please note that I don’t agree with one part of that otherwise excellent article.
In the third paragraph, it says, “Our words don’t save us. Salvation is by grace through the gift of faith (Ephesians 2:8-9), not by words we speak.” However, in my opinion, and as stated in Romans 6:23, salvation (eternal life)--not faith--is the gift being referred to by those verses in Ephesians.
In addition, Romans 10:13 says, “For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” In my case, I believed in God and agreed with everything that the Bible said about him, but I didn’t actually get saved until I prayed and asked Jesus to come into my heart.
