Taking from Romans 10, v9
9 because, if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.
Think it is essential to believe 1) Jesus died for sins, 2) was raised from the dead and is alive.
These 2 factors form the essence of the faith that is required for salvation, thus forming the basis for a person to be declared righteous. 1) He carried sin 2) He is raised from the dead and is alive.
So necessarily, the person has to believe in the following:
1) Jesus incarnation as God become man,
2) bearing sins of the world
3) paying through death for sins punishment
4) raised from the dead ‘for righteousness’ to declare man righteous who believes in Him.
Thus the above are the essential elements of biblical faith, faith that can save a person. Praise God!
