What is the minimum info needed for salvation?

Romans 10:9-10 [CSB]
If you confess with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord," and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. One believes with the heart, resulting in righteousness, and one confesses with the mouth, resulting in salvation.

 

You didn't include water baptism in order to be 'saved'?

16 He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that disbelieveth shall be condemned. Mk 16

38 And Peter said unto them, Repent ye, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ unto the remission of your sins; and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.
39 For to you is the promise, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call unto him.
40 And with many other words he testified, and exhorted them, saying, Save yourselves from this crooked generation. Acts 2

20 that aforetime were disobedient, when the longsuffering of God waited in the days of Noah, while the ark was a preparing, wherein few, that is, eight souls, were saved through water:
21 which also after a true likeness doth now save you, even baptism, not the putting away of the filth of the flesh, but the interrogation of a good conscience toward God, through the resurrection of Jesus Christ; 1 Pet 3

 

but has been made manifest now by the appearing of our Saviour Jesus Christ, who has annulled death, and brought to light life and incorruptibility by [through] the glad tidings [gospel]; 2 Tim 1:10 Darby for incorruptibility

Is, life and incorruptibility, salvation?

Does the gospel bring, salvation, to light. To understanding?

Is the gospel about how salvation was wrought or is the gospel about how to be saved?

For Ky

From Matt 20:23 And he saith to them, 'Of my cup indeed ye shall drink, and with the baptism that I am baptized with ye shall be baptized;

 

Why would a Calvinist think that any of this is necessary?

 

I'd have to think about this passage and how much she knew.
WE KNOW SHE WAS SAVED. Jesus said it.

Luke 7:36-50
36One of the Pharisees asked him to eat with him, and he went into the Pharisee’s house and reclined at table. 37And behold, a woman of the city, who was a sinner, when she learned that he was reclining at table in the Pharisee’s house, brought an alabaster flask of ointment, 38and standing behind him at his feet, weeping, she began to wet his feet with her tears and wiped them with the hair of her head and kissed his feet and anointed them with the ointment. 39Now when the Pharisee who had invited him saw this, he said to himself, “If this man were a prophet, he would have known who and what sort of woman this is who is touching him, for she is a sinner.” 40And Jesus answering said to him, “Simon, I have something to say to you.” And he answered, “Say it, Teacher.”

41“A certain moneylender had two debtors. One owed five hundred denarii, and the other fifty. 42When they could not pay, he cancelled the debt of both. Now which of them will love him more?” 43Simon answered, “The one, I suppose, for whom he cancelled the larger debt.” And he said to him, “You have judged rightly.” 44Then turning toward the woman he said to Simon, “Do you see this woman? I entered your house; you gave me no water for my feet, but she has wet my feet with her tears and wiped them with her hair. 45You gave me no kiss, but from the time I came in she has not ceased to kiss my feet. 46You did not anoint my head with oil, but she has anointed my feet with ointment. 47Therefore I tell you, her sins, which are many, are forgiven—for she loved much. But he who is forgiven little, loves little.” 48And he said to her, “Your sins are forgiven.” 49Then those who were at table with him began to say among themselves, “Who is this, who even forgives sins?” 50And he said to the woman, “Your faith has saved you; go in peace.”

Maybe she knew he was the Messiah. She definitely did not know about the resurrection.

 

You cannot say someone needs water baptism. Luke 7, that woman was saved and SHE WAS NOT BAPTIZED.

 

The problem with the pol is that it is reductionist. I voted but I would have to add clarifying statements.

As I said in another similar thread,

I'd rather say that a genuine believer will eventually come to believe certain things.

1. Jesus is Deity.
2. Jesus was born of a virgin.
3. Jesus died on the cross for our sins.
4. Jesus rose bodily from the grave.
5. Jesus will come again.


And every one of those statements come with clarifying statements, footnotes tying them to particular scriptures, etc.
