“Understanding the Meaning of Salvation in the New Testament”
from the book by Bishop Michael Atunrase 7 REALITIES THE DEVIL DOESN’T WANT YOU TO KNOW
The word translated Salvation in the New Testament is the Greek word, ‘Soteria’, and it means deliverance, preservation, welfare, soundness, restoration, prosperity, safety, and healing. And is the word used in all these scripture verses.
“Nor is there salvation in any other, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.” Acts 4:12
“And Jesus said to him, “today salvation has come to this house, because he also is a son of Abraham.” Luke 19:9
Salvation is a comprehensive blessing. We can read the verse in Acts 4:12 as this, “Nor is there salvation (deliverance, preservation, welfare, soundness, restoration, prosperity, safety, and healing), in any other for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved (delivered; preserved, have-welfare, have soundness, restored, prosper, safe and healed).” (page 28)
