What does salvation mean
It is taught that to be saved you must pray the sinners prayer in which you admit you are a sinner and ask Jesus to come into your life. Then God will bless and heal you and those you pray for and put you in good situations. Supposed Christians will judge you as unworthy unless you have been through this process. We must be confused. Salvation is personal, as is a relationship with God. The only person that you can insure is obeying God is yourself. Sin has consequences. If you cheat on your wife, it will have no effect on my marriage. In the 5th chapter of Isaiah, God likens the relationship between Him and His children to a man planting a vineyard. The main idea is we must develop as Christians. Character, honesty, and integrity cannot be taught, but are important to have. Admitting you are a sinner without knowing which actions are sins and which are okay are the reasons we scrutinize normal relationships and legalize gay marriage. It is no one’s business if you are saved. Your relationship between you and God is just that, between you and God.

There is no sinners prayer in the bible and that prayer will not save you. Read the bible or I should say read The New Testament as the old testament is just history. The sinners prayer was made up to fool people. Read the bible and do your research.

Unless that one cheats with your wife...
Just looking outside the box for a scrap of humor. Hope you don't mind, too much!
Otherwise you have posted a seriously thought provoking position. Thanks.

If I didn't have a sense of humor, I'm in the wrong place.
