'Confesses' in the Bible

Everyone therefore who confesses me before men, him I will also confess before my Father who is in heaven.

"I tell you, everyone who confesses me before men, him will the Son of Man also confess before the angels of God;

Whoever denies the Son, the same doesn't have the Father. He who confesses the Son has the Father also.

By this you know the Spirit of God: every spirit who confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is of God,

Whoever confesses that Jesus is the Son of God, God remains in him, and he in God.
