Bebe's interpretation
Belief in the heart and confession with the mouth are central to the process of salvation. The passage emphasizes how salvation is a combination of internal conviction and external profession. It is not enough to simply believe in the heart without outwardly expressing that belief. True faith is manifested through our words and actions. When we believe in our hearts, we are aligning ourselves with the righteousness of God. But this belief must be publicly declared; confession is the outward expression of our inward faith. This act of confessing is not only about professing our faith before others but is a public proclamation that Jesus is Lord and that we trust in His work of salvation. Confession helps solidify our personal relationship with God and serves as a witness to the world that we have placed our trust in His saving grace. This verse teaches us that salvation is not just a private matter of belief; it is a declaration of God’s work in our lives. Our salvation is secured through both the inward belief and the outward confession, and through this, we experience the peace of knowing we are saved and reconciled to God.
