Salvation

Salvation is one of the central themes of the Bible and refers to God’s act of rescuing humanity from sin, death, and separation from Him, and restoring people to a right relationship with Himself. The word salvation literally means deliverance or rescue, and in the biblical sense it refers especially to being saved from the consequences and power of sin (Romans 6:23; Ephesians 2:8–9). Salvation is therefore not merely rescue from punishment, but restoration to life with God.
