"Jesus is Lord. I know it sounds sweet in your ears so I say it again, Jesus is Lord!"
Imagine Jesus being proud of you! He said if we confess him before others here on earth, he will speak up for us in heaven. Confessing that Jesus is Lord is simply acknowledging the truth. But for believers, it is more than that, since at the close of time every knee will bow and every tongue confess his name. For us, confessing Jesus is anticipating his triumph in which we will share.
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.
Romans 10:9-10
If Christ is the wisdom of God and the power of God in the experience of those who trust and love him, there needs no further argument of his divinity. Praise The Lord!
