Salvation is the most important gift God offers to humanity. The Bible teaches that all people have sinned and fall short of God’s glory (Romans 3:23). However, through Jesus Christ, God provides a way for us to be saved and reconciled with Him. Salvation is not earned by good works but is a free gift of grace received through faith in Jesus Christ (Ephesians 2:8-9).
To be saved means to be rescued from the penalty of sin, which is eternal separation from God. It also means receiving new life in Christ and the promise of eternity in heaven. The Bible speaks extensively about salvation, explaining how it is received, its significance, and how it transforms our lives.
