What Is Salvation, and Where Is It Found?

For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God (Ephesians 2:8).

Salvation means “to deliver” someone out of danger. Salvation, especially in the Bible, implies then that people need to be saved. It also implies that someone is able and willing to save the person who needs to be saved. The Bible teaches that Jesus Christ is the only source of true salvation for any human being.

Every genuine believer in Jesus Christ will be eternally saved, forever delivered.

Jesus is able to save (Hebrews 7:25). He is also willing to save (John 6:38, 39). And Jesus is the one and only way of salvation (John 14:6). The Christian gospel (“good news”) message therefore includes the bad news that we are all sinners (Romans 3:23), and thus in need of salvation from the holy judgment and wrath of God (Romans 1:18). But Jesus, on the cross, took God’s righteous punishment for sinners on himself (1 Peter 2:24; 3:18) as our substitute; and those who, by grace, believe in him for salvation will never perish (John 3:14-16).

Every genuine believer in Jesus Christ will be eternally saved, forever delivered. We are saved by grace alone, through faith alone, in Christ alone.

Are you starving for want of wonder?

God tells us, over and over again, to focus our starving souls on the superb reality of who He is, what He is doing, and what He promises to do for all who trust in Him.

And God’s invitation to glory in Him is nowhere more explicit than in the repeated command to ‘Behold.’

Justin O. Huffman invites us to meditate on ten of the occasions the command ‘Behold’ is used in the New Testament, and to feast on the wonderful truth we find there.

“Justin Huffman takes the familiar truths of Christ’s gospel and helps us to view them again with wonder—a sense of glory that both fascinates us and fills us with awe. Here is a book that focuses attention on Jesus and says, ‘Behold your God!’.”
     —Joel Beeke


“Behold provides a corrective lens for us to see that there is more to life and invites us to satisfy our deep soul–hunger by feasting on Jesus, the Son of God.”
     —Joel Morris
