Salvation Many people define salvation as deliverance, and the Bible looks at it from a physical and spiritual point-of-view. In Exodus 14:13, the Bible states "Do not be afraid. Stand still, and see the salvation of the LORD, which he accomplishes for you." Here, God is talking about the physical deliverance of the people of Israel from Egyptian armies. Also, Hebrews 2:3 it is the liberation of individuals from the penalty of sin and here the salvation is "so great." In essence, we are saved from God's wrath due to his judgment of sin and this very sin has been seen to separate us from the love of God. When a person sins, it is evident in the Bible that "the wages of sin is death" (Romans 6:23). Hence we need this salvation to remove our sin. Practically, the pardon we get from God when he redeems us from sin is salvation, which is permanent (Graham, 2013).

Since scripture calls salvation the gracious and undeserved gift that was given to humankind from God (Ephesians 2:5, 8) we attain it through having faith in Jesus Christ. As such, salvation needs to be practiced, and this is what I have managed to understand and learn in the past eight weeks.

Having such a lifestyle helps believers to be discrete and strong in their faith on practicing what they have read and preached from the holy book. Today, my view of the Gospel is that it is more of a message given to us by God, our creator, who intends to save us through His Son Jesus Christ. Therefore, it should be viewed as a personal relationship with God that needs to be nurtured more through practice. Practicing salvation implies that an individual should be able to live by the commandments as it pertains to different issues. The fact that practicing salvation is not easy, it is not for the faint heart, but those with a strong will and conviction in the spirit. It is imperative for people to understand and comprehend the real meaning of salvation. This deliverance has been able to reach everywhere without having to lose the faith. Regardless of one's sinful nature and history, salvation is meant for anyone who is willing to have Jesus in his or her life. By joining the movement of God's Kingdom, it is mandatory for one to practice what has been written because God gave Moses the commandment's at Mt. Sinai for the Israelites to follow. As such, we need to practice them to be differentiated from those unbelievers who are in the world and the purpose that God…

Furthermore it is with Isaiah that one first becomes acquainted with the idea that the Messiah would die. "And they made his grave with the wicked and with a rich man in his death, although he had done no violence, and there was no deceit in his mouth."

Jesus Christ Is the Central Figure of Christianity Who Was Born in Bethlehem, Judea sometime between 8 BC and 29 AD. The name "Jesus" is derived from a Greek rendering of the Hebrew name Joshua, while "Christ" is the Greek translation of the Hebrew mashiakh or Messiah, which was a title that was later made part of Jesus' proper name. Christians traditionally believe that Jesus is the incarnate Son of God,

" In this instance, the word revelation means "the communication of the knowledge of God" or "God's disclosure to humanity of Himself" (Baixeras, Internet). Therefore, if God had to reveal to Jesus His own knowledge, this indicates that Jesus was not an omniscient being, for as a prophet, his own revelations to common, ordinary men and women were made possible via some form of communication with God the Father. In conclusion,

" This means that God indeed hates humans because of the sins that we commit, and we do have to trust in God and in salvation, otherwise, we would be deemed to suffer an eternal torment in Hell. When Jesus Christ, He happened to save all of us unworthy human beings form the severity of God's wrath, which would have descended on us if this supreme sacrifice by Jesus Christ

Because of my community of
