Baptists/Consequences of Believing Jesus is Not God

Question
Hello Rev. Woods,

What are the consequences of a person believing that Jesus is not God yet truly believe that he is the Son of God?

Thank you for your reply.
Brad

Answer
Blessings and thank you for your question.

Sorry for the late reply.

The Bible says that:  "If you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and you believe that God raised Him from the dead, you shall be saved."

Jesus cannot be Lord unless He is God.  Jesus said that He and the Father were one.

So to me, if you not believe that Jesus is God then you are saved therefore you would condemn yourself to Hell.
