Rom 10:9-15 Because, if you confess with your lips that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. (10) For man believes with his heart and so is justified, and he confesses with his lips and so is saved. (11) The scripture says, "No one who believes in him will be put to shame." (12) For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek; the same Lord is Lord of all and bestows his riches upon all who call upon him. (13) For, "every one who calls upon the name of the Lord will be saved." (14) But how are men to call upon him in whom they have not believed? And how are they to believe in him of whom they have never heard? And how are they to hear without a preacher? (15) And how can men preach unless they are sent? As it is written, "How beautiful are the feet of those who preach good news!"
