Mhmm and I'm sure a poor prostitute who cries our "Jesus please save me" understands the theology of this in full does she?
This is why God is so good, he comes to the meek and lowly and typically not for the wise of this world. Humilates the proud and those wise in their own sight.
But we'll just agree to disagree.
Well if we trust the Bible
Romans 10:
9 That 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.
10 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
11 For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed.
12 For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him.
13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.
14 How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher?
15 And how shall they preach, except they be sent? as it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things!
Everyone saved was saved because they believed Jesus died and rose for their sin! Make that good news as deep or simple as needed. But a person is required ot believe in the death and resurrection of Jesus for them in order to be saved.
