'Confesses' in the Bible
“And I say to you, everyone who confesses Me before men, the Son of Man will confess him also before the angels of God;
for with the heart a person believes, resulting in righteousness, and with the mouth he confesses, resulting in salvation.
Whoever denies the Son does not have the Father; the one who confesses the Son has the Father also.
By this you know the Spirit of God: every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is from God;
Whoever confesses that Jesus is the Son of God, God abides in him, and he in God.
