How do we know that Christ's lordship is essential for salvation?

Answered in 1 source

Christ's lordship is essential because true salvation requires acknowledging Him as both Lord and Saviour (Romans 10:9-10).

To be saved, one must understand and embrace the dual nature of Christ as both Lord and Saviour. Romans 10:9-10 emphasizes that confession of Jesus as Lord, alongside belief in His resurrection, is crucial for salvation. This acknowledgment signifies a heart fully surrendered to Christ’s authority, recognizing that He is not only the one who saves but also the ruler to whom we submit. Without this submission, one cannot truly experience the life-transforming grace that leads to genuine repentance and faith.
