Whoever calls

For "WHOEVER CALLS ON THE NAME OF THE LORD SHALL BE SAVED." - Romans 10v13

There is not a whole lot to say about this is there? “Whoever calls upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.”

Sure, this is not just a desperate call into the darkness. Sure it is based on a confession that Jesus is Who He says He is. Sure it is based on a belief in the heart. It is even based on a proclamation that He was raised from the dead. But, at the end of the day “whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved.”

It is not exclusive. It is not limited. It is not bound by some kind of works and law. The offer is open to all.

I can only praise God that “Whosever included me.” If it weren’t for “whoever” where would I be?
