"Lordship salvation" is the idea that you have to be "good enough at making Jesus Lord of your life", in order to be saved. It is not the Gospel, since it is works for salvation, and therefore "lordship salvation" leads to hell because it is a denial of the Gospel, since you cannot add any works to salvation. Here is the true Gospel: The Lord Jesus Christ is God. Nobody can be good enough to avoid hell. The truth is that death leads to immediate heaven or hell, depending only on whether the person believed on the Lord Jesus Christ, or not. The truth is that the Lord Jesus Christ loves you and wants to bless your life freely :) Most of all, Jesus wants you with Him forever, and not in hell. It is too late to be saved, after death.
Believing on the Lord Jesus Christ means being forgiven all sins past and future and means going to heaven. The truth is that every belief except one will lead to eternal torment in the lake of fire for every person. Because nothing pays for our sins except the death and blood of Jesus, the sacrifice of Jesus that is already accomplished by Him . Jesus loves you! The truth is that the Lord Jesus Christ is God, and Jesus died on the cross to pay for all of our sins in full, and then Jesus was buried, and then Jesus resurrected from the dead. Nothing else pays for our sins, not works, not deeds, not religions. So the only way to heaven and to avoid hell, is by believing on Jesus for eternal life (John 6:47), without adding any of your own works (Romans 4:5). Believe in the Lord Jesus Christ to take you to heaven, and you will be in heaven, no matter what, guaranteed. That easy, thanks to Jesus! Tell Jesus that you thank Him that you will be with Him in heaven

Salvation is a gift from God, granted to those who turn to Him in prayer!

If anyone speaks, they should do so as one who speaks the very words of God. ...
As much as possible, I try to use Bible lingo when referring to things in the Bible. I've never seen the term "lordship salvation" in the scriptures (or even heard of it) which means if understanding that term was that important, it would be somewhere in the Bible.

I'll be honest
I've only once seen the term (never heard it)
and that was in another question here on Y!A.
