The last line there; what might keep Christ from accepting one who has accepted Christ?

The wrong jesus or the wrong gospel.

There are only one of each, but their definitions are larger than
our words for them. We are told that many or most who have said the words that you surely associate with "salvation" will be in hell, meaning "Jesus" and "Gospel" were not accepted. Your Jesus and your Gospel.

I disagree with this because I have not given any magic words to recite for salvation.

Ok, then this was for virtually every other Christian,
and not you.

definitely. for all my yack here, it prolly still largely is-
-I have just dimly seen that one does not accept
Christ with their mouth, with words.
