If "the Bible" is your standard, then where does it say "accepting the Lord"?

I would have thought that you could have extrapolated that by accepting I mean receiving Gods grace via his Son as it says in John 14:6 (KJV), Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. It also says one must receive the Lord to receive everlasting life in many other places.

I believe that mandates an acceptance of some sort, correct?

A8 asks, “where does it say “accepting the Lord”?”

Since the original languages were Hebrew, Aramaic, and Greek, your question is “strifes of words”
