Glossary Salvation
Salvation
Definition: Salvation is the deliverance from sin and its consequences, made possible through faith in Jesus Christ. It is God’s gift of grace to restore our relationship with Him.
Understanding Salvation
Salvation is the foundation of Christian faith. It means being forgiven for sins and receiving eternal life through Jesus’ sacrifice on the cross. Every believer experiences a transformation of heart and mind when they accept this gift.
Through salvation, we are not only forgiven but also empowered to live a life pleasing to God. It starts with acknowledging our need for God, repenting of sin, and trusting in Jesus Christ.
