What does it mean to make a confession of faith unto salvation like Romans 10:9-10 declares we must do? Does it mean to make a sinners prayer? Or maybe it means to just make some kind of declaration of Christian faith? Are all these things necessary for salvation or the means by which we acquire the salvation that comes to us from God?
Simply as Catholics, we believe that there is an ongoing work of salvation that each one of us must participate in. It is something that begins with our baptism and continues throughout the remainder of our lives until we die and go before the judgment seat of Christ. To many Protestants, this seems to be a works styled solvation. Yet one of their core Scriptures in Romans, specifically the declaration from Romans 10:9-10, it would appear that there is some act that each one of us must do in order to be saved. This act is more than just a prayer declaration of faith. It is a continual work that we must mix with our faith in the sense that James talked about in his second chapter in order for faith to not be dead. To truly have a living faith and that is our topic today.
