True, you don't know who the rescuer is who saves you from a burning building. However, the bible says that to be saved in the biblical sense, one must believe on the Lord Jesus Christ. You cannot believe on Him if you don't know Who He is.did I say he was not lord?
When a rescuer comes to pull you from a burning building. do you know who that rescuer is. or do you trust that he can save you and allow him to do his job?
Yes, to the natural man. When we are saved it is by God's grace, His working, His granting of spiritual life.Again, I can not agree. the bible says the things of God are foolishness..
And the basics includes Who Jesus is.Until a person is saved, about all he can understand is the basics.
True, I agree with that. But in relation to the current topic, this man knew Jesus as Lord:As the man who begged Jesus to save his daughter said when Jesus asked him if he believed. I believe help me with my unbelief..
“Immediately the father of the child cried out and said with tears, “Lord, I believe; help my unbelief!”” (Mr 9:24 NKJV)
He is both Saviour and Lord:He has to become my savior before he can become my lord..
