Romans 10:7 In-Context
5 Moses writes about being made right by following the law. He says, "A person who obeys these things will live because of them."
6 But this is what the Scripture says about being made right through faith: "Don't say to yourself, 'Who will go up into heaven?' " (That means, "Who will go up to heaven and bring Christ down to earth?")
7 "And do not say, 'Who will go down into the world below?' " (That means, "Who will go down and bring Christ up from the dead?")
8 This is what the Scripture says: "The word is near you; it is in your mouth and in your heart." That is the teaching of faith that we are telling.
9 If you use your mouth to say, "Jesus is Lord," and if you believe in your heart that God raised Jesus from the dead, you will be saved.
