The Good News
Scripture tells us that every one of us needs rescue—not self-improvement, not a spiritual tune-up, but a Savior (Romans 3:23). And the good news is that God has already provided everything we need through Jesus Christ. Salvation isn’t about trying harder or doing better—it’s about receiving the gift God freely offers. It’s about turning from sin, trusting in Jesus’ finished work on the cross, and stepping into a new life marked by grace, hope, and transformation. When we’re saved, we aren’t just forgiven—we’re made new (2 Corinthians 5:17). We become children of God, welcomed into His family, given a purpose, and invited into a relationship that changes everything.
What is salvation?
Salvation is God’s free gift of eternal life through faith in Jesus Christ. It is not earned by good works, but received by grace. Here, discover what the Bible says about being saved, forgiven, and made new.
Why do we need salvation?
