Jesus said it’s done, meaning death has been defeated, the new covenant is here, and if you follow his teachings you will be saved.

I don’t understand it, we don’t need a ton of theologians to discuss this, the salvation of the gospel is simple, a child can do it, and it’s even mentioned that’s how we should come to him.

Either/Or thinking. Nobody said that a child cannot have salvific faith in Christ. But when it comes to understanding what the authors of Scripture intended to say, anti-intellectualism is no asset. The more knowledge is brought to bear, the better.
