5For Moses describeth the righteousness which is of the law, That the man which doeth those things shall live by them.
6But the righteousness which is of faith speaketh on this wise, Say not in thine heart, Who shall ascend into heaven? (that is, to bring Christ down from above
7Or, Who shall descend into the deep? (that is, to bring up Christ again from the dead.)
8But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach;
9That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
10For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
11For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed.
12For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him.
13For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. Rom. 10:5-13
All too often we look at things through our human eyes and not through
the eyes of heart. We have a hard time taking God at His Word when He
says if we confess with our mouths and believe with our heart that
Jesus is Lord and God raised Him from the dead, then we are saved. It
is not our works or an¥ other action which will get us into heaven. For
most of us, that just does not click in our hearts and mind as it
should. The thief upon the cross believed at the very end of his life
and was saved. We must learn that God opens doors for us and we need to go through them as He leads. Not getting ahead of Him or behind, but
moving along as the Spirit gives us insight to what He has for us.
Another week has almost been completed and we are nearly to the end of January.
Have a great week and tell some one about Jesus..

Amen brother!
John 3:14-18
[14] And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up:
[15] That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life. [16] For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
[17] For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.
[18] He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.

Bro Motor; Sometimes we have a hard time excepting the scripture we just qouted. Example
We have a hard time taking God at His Word when He
says if we confess with our mouths and believe with our heart that
Jesus is Lord and God raised Him from the dead, then we are saved.
This is your explaination of this scripture you just posted.
Here is the qoute as the bible records it:
9That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
"Thou shalt be saved", and "we are saved" isn't quite the same. We simply can't take the future and place it in the past. What "will" be will be. and what "has" been, has been, and we can't change time. God is in charge of that.
