Divine Salvation: Pathway to Rebirth and Universal Hope

The salvation promised by God holds multifaceted and profound significance for the adherents of this faith. It is primarily understood as deliverance from the suffering caused by sin—a transition from God’s wrath to mercy, which is essentially determined by God’s decision rather than by the efforts of the human soul. This understanding confers upon salvation the status of a fundamental moment that underpins the transformative process a person encounters in their inner struggle and quest for true life. As noted:

"Salvation is understood as deliverance from the suffering caused by sin.

Why does sin lead to death?

He explains this by stating that God is angry and therefore punishes. Consequently, salvation is understood solely as the transformation of God’s wrath into mercy, which takes place in Divine consciousness and does not pertain to the human soul. Therefore, the outcome of justification—sanctification—must depend on God’s decision." (source: link txt)

Furthermore, salvation is associated with the process of restoring the primordial memory of God within a person—a gradually emerging recognition of Christ that restores the lost meaning of life. In this way, salvation becomes not merely deliverance from negativity, but a rebirth of spiritual life in which the connection between man and God is renewed:

"Even the fallen and mortal time of ‘this world’ He transformed from within into the story of salvation, revealing its meaning as the anticipation of salvation and preparation for it, as the gradual restoration in man of the memory of Himself—in knowledge, yearning, premonition, and love. So that when the fullness of time arrives, that is, upon the completion of this preparation, a person may recognize in the coming Savior the God, remember the forgotten, and in Him regain his lost life."

The significance of salvation is further underscored by its roots in the divine plan, where the eternal promise finds its concrete realization through Christ. It is portrayed not as a random miracle, but as the logical and historically grounded fulfillment of God’s plan, aimed at uniting peoples of different nations, and soon—bringing salvation to all of humanity:

"‘Now You are sending forth Your servant, O Lord, by Your word, in peace,’ said the elder; from that moment, the bond holding him in life was broken, and You, O Lord, send me from this life into another new life, ‘by Your word,’ by the prophecy given to me by Your Holy Spirit, ‘in peace,’ for my eyes have seen Your salvation... The salvation promised by God to the world through the Redeemer-Messiah, whom I was privileged to behold..." (source: link txt)

It is also important to note that salvation is viewed as a central theme encompassing the questions of creation, fall, and redemption of man. It plays a key role in defining the chosenness of a people who serve as a sacred oasis amid universal decay. In this context, salvation becomes the ultimate goal of the mercies granted through the law and covenant, even pointing us toward universal salvation:

"‘For salvation from the Jews.’ Redemption encompasses all, yet is achieved only through selection, separation, and isolation. ... It is only here that a true (albeit transformative) priesthood was established. ... All the mercies granted to Old Israel are aimed at the ultimate goal of universal salvation." (source: link txt)

Finally, the assuring sense of security brought by this salvation serves as the foundation for the personal confidence of believers. Nothing—neither death nor any other forces—can separate them from the love of God, as revealed in Christ, which becomes the source of inexhaustible spiritual support and hope:

"And I firmly believe that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, neither the powers of darkness in the universe, neither the world to come, nor the abyss—nothing in all of creation can separate us from the love of God, which has been revealed to us in Christ Jesus, our Lord."

Thus, the salvation promised by God for the followers of this faith signifies both deliverance from the sufferings brought about by sin and a spiritual rebirth that restores the memory of God within man, as well as the fulfillment of God’s historical plan aimed at both a specific chosen group and all of humanity. It stands as the guarantee of God’s unchanging love, providing believers with strength, assurance, and hope in eternal communion with God.
