Jesus Creed

What does “If you confess with your lips Jesus Christ as Lord…” mean? Here Paul defines what a Christian is.

I frequent your website the “Jesus Creed” and greatly appreciate what you have to add regarding various issues of the Christian faith. I am currently reading your book Praying with the Church and find it delightful that you appreciate many different forms of Christian tradition. I suppose my question I have for you, if you…
