PART III

SALVATION:

THE BIBLICAL DOCTRINE OF SALVATION

In this part the Biblical doctrine of salvation will be presented based on the Biblical doctrine of sin and death presented in PART I. Since God is the source of salvation, the Biblical doctrine of God will be examined first. In particular the love and righteousness of God will be discussed. It is not an exhaustive discussion of this doctrine. This exposition then will lead to the main discussion of the Biblical doctrine of salvation. Here it will be shown how God has delivered man from death, sin and wrath by the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. Salvation will be shown here to be primarily from death to life and secondarily from sin to righteousness and then from the wrath of God. The Biblical meaning of justification will also be presented.
