Born Again-Saved, Converted - Part III
By: Pastor Samuel Payne

To be born again- one changes over from “darkness” to “light”. The word convert reveals to us the teaching of a total switch over from Satan to the Lord Jesus Christ. There is most definitely a change in authority structure, action, and belief system when one changes over from the world’s way of living to God’s way.

Romans 10:9, 10:13

10:9- “SHALL CONFESS WITH THY MOUTH”

Confess: to declare openly by way of speaking out freely. The effect of deep conviction of facts.

Thy mouth: Everyone must confess with their mouth. You cannot do it for someone else. According to verse 10 it is the confession with the mouth that brings the Salvation or Deliverance.

10:9- “SHALT BELIEVE IN YOUR HEART”

Believe: to have faith in, to entrust, commit, put in trust with.

One must believe in the death, burial and Resurrection

of the Lord Jesus Christ. Also, know that in Romans

8:11, that Jesus was raised from the dead by the same

Holy Spirit that lives in us today!

10:13- “WHOSOEVER SHALL CALL”

Whosoever: includes anyone, everyone, nation, kindred, tongue, etc…

10:13- “SHALL CALL = SHALL BE SAVED”

Saved: to deliver or protect, heal, preserve, save, do well, be made whole.

1. Remember everyone must call on their own.

2. Remember everyone must call on the name of the Lord Jesus Christ!

Ephesians 2:8-10

Saved is a biblical term!!!!

Dear Jesus,

Thank you for loving me enough to take my place on the cross and dying for my sins. Please forgive me of all my sins. I will now follow you and serve you as you lead and guide me. I do believe in the death, burial and resurrection of yourself for me. Teach me through your word and Spirit and help me understand the purpose of you in my life. I now transfer the ownership of my life to you. Thank you again for loving me.

Now according to you word I’ve confessed and believed. Therefore I am saved!!

In Jesus Name,
