All right. We are back. We are here at the Biblos Network. We're in the studio. We are talking about the great things of God. And we are excited that you could be with us. I don't know how long this session is going to be today.

Guys, we'll see how it goes as we move along.

If you are around church or around religion or denominalism for any length of time, you'll hear this phrase.

Confess with your mouth and believe in your heart.

And some people call that the Roman road.

I want to take a little time today and I want to describe the Roman road.

I want to shed, hopefully, a little insight, a little light upon Romans 10.

Confess with your mouth, believe in your heart.

Because the Bible says that with the mouth, confession is made into salvation,

with the heart man believes under righteousness,

and thou shalt be saved.

And it's true.

But what I want to leave you with today, and please feel free to send this to your friends who might have heard this, or maybe they believe a certain way

concerning this phrase, that phrase doesn't mean what people think it means.

Here at the Biblius Network, we strongly encourage people to look at the epistles through the lens of the Book of Acts.

If the Book of Acts is the glasses through which you view the scripture, things radically shift from the way maybe you were raised, the way you have previously interpreted the scripture.

If you just fly in from outer space and a flying saucer and land on Romans 10 and just arbitrarily read that, you will come away with

a radically different interpretation than if you had come through the Book of Acts.

So let me tell you what most people do.

Somebody comes up to them, they say, hey, you want to go to heaven?

I'll tell you how to go to heaven.

You need to have faith in Jesus. And then you need to say a prayer, tell God to forgive you of your sins. They do. Lord, forgive me of my sins. I'm sorry, don't want to live like that, don't want to do that. Those are very good things. Those are very necessary things. We do have to have faith. We do express our faith. we do repent of our sins. That's all very biblical.
