This is the third book of a five volume series attempting to rediscover the amazing encouragement the Scriptures offer to all men everywhere. This five book series must be read in order and seen as five layers of foundation needed for understanding the message of the Bible and, thereby, all the events and circumstances of life. Systematic theology has unintentionally hidden from view the simple truths of the Bible by a presumptive systematization of its teachings, mixing topics together like so many ingredients thrown into a blender. When justification, salvation, eternal life, the kingdom of heaven, redemption, and the like are blended together with the presumption that they are basically describing the same thing, the message of the Bible is lost. This series of books attempts to set aside the myriad assumptions that systematic theology rests upon (as it mixes together a variety of concepts, losing sight of their individual messages and contributions) and demands a "chapter and verse" proof for everything that is presented as Christian truth. Different topics are not synonymous unless the Bible specifically says they are.The first volume clarifies the topics of justification, salvation, and eternal life. And the second volume demonstrates that the conclusions set forth in the first volume are true and can be easily found in the life of Saul after Jesus died, rose again, and ascended into heaven.This volume narrows the focus begun in volumes one and two and places it upon the concept of salvation alone. To what does the term salvation refer? How is it related to forgiveness? Does one need to repent to be saved? How many times can a person be saved? Were the people in the OT saved in the same way as those in the NT? Is it possible that John 14:6 and Acts 4:12 have been misunderstood?But most importantly, what if salvation, the NT doctrine of being spiritually saved, has nothing to do with heaven in the first place? Can't you see, if that is true, how all the bickering, confusion, and paranoia over securing heaven as one's eternal destiny is just a distraction, certainly devised by Satan himself and willingly maintained by the flesh of man? We don't see the characters in the Bible wringing their hands, obsessed with the fear of missing heaven, do we? (Not unless we read that agenda into various texts.)This book explains salvation and most of the concepts related to it in the Scriptures. You will be encouraged to know that spiritual salvation is God's plan for providing you with resources to walk with Him daily. With these resources you can conquer every trial that you have to face as you behold the God of all creation sustaining and blessing you in the process. This is a salvation well-worth pursuing, and, once obtained by faith in Jesus alone, living.
