Exegesis
The main verb of the clause, sothesetai {σωθήσεται | sō-thē-se-tai}, is future passive indicative and presents salvation as a guaranteed future result granted by divine agency. Syntactically, the structure forms a universal promise: the condition (whoever calls upon the Lord’s name) leads directly to the result (that person will be saved), which is reflected in English by preserving the conditional relative wording and the strong future “will be saved.”
In context — Acts 2:21
And it will be that everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved .
