For it is written:
Romans 10
9That 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. 10For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you confess and are saved. 11As the Scripture says, "Anyone who trusts in him will never be put to shame." 12For there is no difference between Jew and Gentile—the same Lord is Lord of all and richly blesses all who call on him, 13for, "Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved."
1 Corinthians 12:3
Therefore I tell you that no one who is speaking by the Spirit of God says, "Jesus be cursed," and no one can say, "Jesus is Lord," except by the Holy Spirit.

The bible also says (in one of the gospels I think) that not all who say "Lord Lord" will enter heaven. It's not the words in your mouth but the faith in your heart and the life that comes from it. Simply saying a prayer one day doesn't save you anymore than sitting in a garage makes you a car. You have to BE a believer, not just say you are. God bless you.

because of the fact no longer in basic terms do you have confess Jesus is Lord. you apart from would could be baptized in Jesus call and packed with the Holy Ghost. John 3:5 "different than a guy be born of water and of the Spirit he can no longer enter into the dominion of God." and you may't be a Christian out of your mouth. you may behave like one too. you may stay a holy sparkling existence-type. and not all and sundry who says they are stored is probably no longer stored. that's what Matthew 7:21 potential.

Saved from what? We are all God and just down here to play. "See God in each other." Can you imagine what would happen if all of us really saw God in each other? It really is true you know, we are all God. Even Jesus. So what do we have to be saved from? We don't need to be saved. We already are.

Just because a questionable, flawed, man-made book says so, doesn't mean it is fact. You can quote all the nonsense you want out of the Bible, but have you ever considered the source of your belief? God did not write that...men did.

This is the truth. Jesus paid the wages of our sins with His own death. All we have to do is have faith in what Jesus did for us and know that it was through the shedding of His blood, that our sins are forgiven when we rpent of them sincerely and not repeat those sins over and over again.
