Romans 10:7 Meaning and Commentary

(See Gill on Romans 10:6).

Romans 10:7 In-Context

5 Moses wrote that anyone who insists on using the law code to live right before God soon discovers it's not so easy - every detail of life regulated by fine print!

6 But trusting God to shape the right living in us is a different story - no precarious climb up to heaven to recruit the Messiah,

7 no dangerous descent into hell to rescue the Messiah.

8 So what exactly was Moses saying? The word that saves is right here, as near as the tongue in your mouth, as close as the heart in your chest.

9 Say the welcoming word to God - "Jesus is my Master" - embracing, body and soul, God's work of doing in us what he did in raising Jesus from the dead. That's it. You're not "doing" anything; you're simply calling out to God, trusting him to do it for you. That's salvation.
