“Well you know, Paul links the deity of the Lord Jesus, and obviously His full humanity, but he links the deity of the Lord Jesus, with salvation. He says, ‘if you confess with your mouth, Jesus is Lord,’ – now a lot of people [proponents of Lordship Salvation] think that means that Jesus is the master of my life, that I’ve submitted everything to Him, that’s not what it means. It means that if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is God, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead (you see how it links resurrection with His deity?), ‘you will be saved.’ And so that’s why it’s so crucial to understand that He’s fully God, and that’s proven by the resurrection.”[1]
