Salvation – More Than a Set of Terms or Propositions

June 22, 2023

On this episode of Anchored & Reaching, hosts Kevin Mannoia and Susanna Fleming delve into the dynamic process of Christian salvation. They discuss how faith, repentance, confession, and sanctification are continuously at work in a believer’s life, emphasizing that salvation is a journey, not just a one-time event.

Key TakeawaysFaith in Jesus Christ is about living a life continuously renewed and surrendered to Christ, rather than just a one-time event or a series of tasks to check off.Justification, often equated with ‘getting saved,’ is a singular moment but its impact is daily lived as believers depend on Jesus.Salvation is a lifetime journey of being restored. It’s not about a specific moment of conversion, but a consistent, ongoing relationship with Jesus.The dynamic and ambiguous nature of these theological concepts invites deeper exploration of faith and ensures the focus stays on God’s agency.Bible ReferencesJohn 3:16 – on God’s gift of salvation through JesusHebrews 12:2 – on Jesus as the author and finisher of our faithPhilippians 1:6 – on God’s faithfulness to complete the good work He began in believers
