__If__ you confess with your mouth Jesus __is__ Lord, and __if__ you believe IN YOUR HEART that God raised Him from the dead, you SHALL be saved; 10 for with the HEART (that resulted from the righteousness of being “reckoned” righteous), a person believes, and with the mouth (that resulted from having been saved), a person confesses Jesus is Lord. 11 For the Scripture says, “Whoever (has been justified and has his sins forgiven and) believes in Him (---not in himself) shall (NO ‘ifs’), not be disappointed.”

1 John 2 - the "one who claims to know Christ" will be seen to do certain things.
1John 5:1-4 "By this we KNOW"
2 By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God and keep His commandments. 3 For this is the love of God, that we keep His commandments. And His commandments are not burdensome.
Romans 10 comes to mind.
9 that if you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved;
10 for with the heart a person believes, resulting in righteousness, and with the mouth he confesses, resulting in salvation. 11 For the Scripture says, “Whoever believes in Him will not be [h]disappointed.”
Eph 2
8 For by grace you have been saved through faith; and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God; 9 not as a result of works, so that no one may boast. 10 For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand so that we would walk in them. -

The condition:
"If Jesus __IS__ Lord"
Result 1:
Faith
Result 2: "faith (received) RECKONED a man, that man is RECKONED just / righteous".
<<“Whoever believes in Him will not be disappointed.”>>
WHO believes in Him? He, whom "Jesus IS Lord" for.
None who "JESUS is" not the Lord of believes.
The condition of and for everything unto salvation to become true and actual is that Jesus must be Lord, FIRST.
