According to the closing prayer, what does the believer confess with the mouth?
Answer
Jesus Christ as Lord
Explanation
### Why this is right
The prayer draws on the passage that connects belief in the heart with confession of Jesus as Lord. It treats salvation as received through faith, not earned by personal merit.
### The concept
The prayer’s sequence is inward belief followed by outward confession. Righteousness is described as being received in Christ rather than achieved as payment for good behavior.
### The other options
- **B. Personal worthiness to earn salvation**: the prayer rejects earning salvation through merit.
- **C. That healing removes the need for faith**: the text does not say this.
- **D. That good works purchase righteousness**: righteousness is presented as received through faith.
