    The messiah is described as the agent of God’s salvation (Isa 52: 13-53:12). In the New Testament salvation is from God and centered on Jesus: in includes physical and spiritual healing, forgiveness of sins, the gift of eternal life, adoption as a child of God and the gift and the gift of the indwelling spirit. Salvation is what God has done in the death of and resurrection of Jesus, is doing now in the work of the spirit, and will do in creating the new world of the kingdom of God (Mt 1:21; 19:25; 24:22; Lk 1:77; Rom 13:11; Tit 3:5; 1pe 2:2).…

    The Old and New Testaments contain the word of God. This word came to us through the people that God chose in Israel. In order to understand God’s word to us it is necessary to reflect upon the lives of God’s chosen ones, the Israelites. God has revealed himself gradually throughout the entire history of the created world. These chosen people learned to listen and established a permanent relationship with God. God still encounters and communicates with living people. He meets them in all of history and enters into relationship with them, too. The history of salvation in Cavalletti’s History’s Golden Thread presents eight key moments of salvation history in this divine plan of God for all humans that are connected. When we use the bible, we…

    Salvation is living life eternally, that much can be agreed upon. Salvation itself is not much of an argument. The problem that I am researching is not ‘is salvation out there?’ The problem lies when the question ‘who does salvation reach?’ is asked. Many people ask themselves the question ‘who will live eternally in Heaven and what does salvation truly accomplish?’ The pluralist view takes on the stance that Christianity is not the one and only salvific path, but that it is one among many others. They believe that the center of salvation is God, not Christ (Hick, 1995). The hard restrictivists believe the opposite. They say that salvation is only given because of the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. Due to this belief, the very core of their viewpoint is that people get to Heaven through surrendering their lives to Christ, and becoming Christians (Geivett & Phillips, 1995). The inclusivist view says that God saves people through Christ alone; however, he makes this possible through ways that…
