Acts 16:31 says, “Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house” (my emphasis). What’s the difference between being “Lord” and “Savior”?
When Joyce and I married, suppose the preacher had said, “Adrian, do you take Joyce to be your lawfully wedded wife?” And I said, “Well, I take her as housekeeper.” If I had done that, I have an idea that Joyce would not have married me.
I didn’t understand all that was involved in marriage at our wedding ceremony; I’m still learning what it’s all about. When I gave my heart to Jesus, I didn’t understand what it was all about either, but I’ll tell you one thing: I did not come with my fingers crossed behind my back, taking Him as Savior, but not as Lord.
When I was saved, I gave all I knew of me to all I knew of Jesus. I said, “I do” to Him. I took Jesus, and so must you. And I’m telling you from my heart, Jesus Christ is Lord, and you cannot have what He gives unless you accept who He is.
