I once saw Elvis at a waffle house in Savannah Georgia.
I bet my grandpa knows him. He was compelled to play with an Elvis down their once, as he lives in that area.

When I saw him, he left toward his semi..... if only I could catch him, he'd have to give me his pot of gold.

Well it's up to Sally, in the end. You two will have to decide.

If Sally doesn't want an Elvis wedding, I may have to move on.

I got you....but you have to admit it is kind of refreshing to go into the BDF and actually giggle instead of getting frustrated

Sally is sitting in the Pew of a Church, her friend got her to go to church with her. When she hears the message she is convicted by her sins, she hears about Jesus, and wants to become a Christian. She knows she is sinner and wants to be forgiven.
At the alter call, she walks up to the preacher, and says i believe that Jesus is the Son of God, i believe that He rose from the dead. i confess my sins to Jesus Christ and i repent of them. She then asks the Preacher "Am I a Christian now? Am I saved? Is my name written in the Book of Life?" He then tells her she is a Christian and she is Born again and is Saved and that her name is written in the Book of Life.
The very next day she is water baptised.

Tell me, is Sally SAVED?
Why the games?
Just declare your position.

IMO, we don't yet have enough info. She could still be any one of the grounds that Jesus spoke of: wayside, thorns, rocky, or good ground.

Only the fruit or lack thereof will tell.
Best answer.

Now that she’s baptized, yes.

If Sally truly repented and believes the gospel/believes on the Lord Jesus Christ, then she is saved "prior to receiving water baptism" (Acts 3:19; 10:43-47; 11:17; 16:31). Simply reciting the sinner's prayer (as if they are a magical set of words) during an altar call "in of itself" (apart from repentance/faith) will not save you. It's also not enough to believe "mental assent" that Jesus is the Son of God and that His death, burial and resurrection "happened." We must also trust in the death, burial and resurrection of Christ as the ALL-sufficient means of our salvation (1 Corinthians 15:1-4; Romans 1:16).
