A relationship with God is required for salvation. Even though sin broke this relationship, God provides a way back through Jesus Christ, the mediator who restores the relationship (1 Timothy 2:5). We are saved when we sincerely believe Jesus died and was resurrected, and we trust in him as our only way to eternal life. Such deep convictions will inevitably be confessed by one's words and way of living.
That if you confess with your month, "Jesus is Lord," and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.
(Romans 10:9)
