You need to learn what Greek believe in him means. Look to Roman's and confess that he is your Lord.  And you had better mean it.  Even then there are some who call Lord, Lord but do not live the lives he asks that will go to the fires.

The context of “Many will say Lord Lord, and I will say I never knew you,” is the Judaizers of New Testament period, who call on Lord God (Jehovah) but reject Jesus who is the Lord God or who add the yoke of law and try to nullify the grace of God. 
 

Even Muslims believe their God is The Lord God, in the Koran, they believe its same God as Abraham. So they too would fall under “Many will say Lord Lord, and I never knew you,” which means know Jesus, “And this is eternal life, that they know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom you have sent.” (John 17:3)

You have to know Jesus, believe and confess Him publicly as Lord (Romans 10:9-10).

Actually believe is sufficient: 

“They replied, “Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved—you and your household.” (Acts 16:31) 

“For it is by grace you have been saved through faith, and this not from yourselves; it is the gift of God.” (Ephesians 2:8) 

“No! We believe it is through the grace of our Lord Jesus that we are saved, just as they are.” (Acts 15:11) -Council of Jerusalem, They Decided Its Grace. 

“and be found in him, not having a righteousness of my own that comes from the law, but that which is through faith in Christ—the righteousness that comes from God on the basis of faith.” (Philipoians 3:9) 

“For it is My Father’s will that everyone who looks to the Son and believes in Him shall have eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day.” (John 6:40) 

“I do not nullify the grace of God, for if righteousness were through the law, then Christ died for no purpose.” (Galatians 2:21)

We are saved by grace, God’s unmerited favor when He died on the cross & through faith (believing in Him, His salvic work at the cross and tomb, and that he gives us this gift of grace and salvation). Its not works, Its Sola Gratia, Sola Fide, Solus Christus. 
 

Christ gave us the free gift of salvation, we have faith or believe it and in Him, we are then saved, made Elect, and Born Again. 

To believe in Jesus is not the same as to believe about Him. To believe in Jesus means to trust Him, to entrust and commit ourselves to Him, to lay hold, to lean, and to rely upon Him. This includes believing that whatever He says is the truth.

Much has been lost in our bible translations because we are looking for a one-to-one translation from the Greek or Aramaic where none exists.  If this is true, the NIV would be a more accurate translation than the ESV or NASB.  And forget about the KJV with its 4000+ errors.

When the Bible is translated to the Chinese or say Islamic language, what version is it translated from? If anyone knows.

Why do you think the NIV is a more accurate translation?

Yes, I know.  That means that the KJV is not copyrighted for you.
