salvation
salvation Initially, God's intention to rescue from danger; later his promise to establish his Kingdom. God's
gift to his
covenant people of help when they confront an enemy (1 Sam. 7: 8 etc.) or, later, God's resolve to establish his reign (Isa. 52: 10). In the NT Jesus (the name is from the
Hebrew word for ‘save’) brings salvation, by means of the reign or
kingdom of God (Matt. 1: 21; 21: 31–2; Luke 19: 10; John 4: 42; Phil 3: 20). But
faith ‘saved’ the woman with the haemorrhage (Mark 5: 34) in the sense simply of restoring her to health.
The
death and
resurrection of Jesus are the decisive moments according to the NT in the scheme of salvation. Those who have faith receive salvation; they are reconciled to God in the present (Rom. 13: 11–14) and saved from the perils of future
judgement (1 Thess. 1: 9–10). The experience of possession by the
spirit is a foretaste of future
joy of salvation in the kingdom (Rom. 8: 23; Eph. 1: 14).
