    I think that Salvation means something or someone from sin or bad. This word is very good for the bible. Yes i believe its your own choice to be predestined. This influences me because salvation is very important and worthy to me as a human being.

    To me salvation means to be saved from any harm or evil set upon you. Or to be set free from the evil/harm that has been set upon you. To some salvation may seem like itʻs only for the people who believe in Jesus Christ or for so called ʻdo good people” but salvation is for everyone.

    To me “Salvation” means to be set free of something. In Christianity the lord is our salvation. Without salvation the world would still be living in the sin of Adam and Eve the first sinners, because of Jesus and his resurrection he saved the world from sin. This is why he is our savior, who has given us salvation because that day he made it possible for us to be set free of our sin.

    For me salvation is the reason why Christianity exists, without salvation we would be burdened still by the sin of Adam and of Eve. There would be no ressurection no life after death and following Christianity would become a hobby or a club more than a religion.

    To me, salvation means being saved. Jesus is our savior because he saved us from our sins and forgave all of us. To me salvation is when you fully trust God and leave everything up to him because at the end of the day he has a plan for each and every one of us, but it is our choice if we trust him or not. Knowing this concept of salvation, it encourages me to be a good person and trust in God.

    Salvation to me means being saved from harm or evil .Yes i feel like your own salvation is based off of your actions and what you do. The Bible speaks of salvation a lot but I think it is the moment when you give your life to Jesus Christ and you are saved.

    To me salvation is necessary for everyone, because everyone deserves and has the love of God. it is not your own choice because God will always choose to save you. this concept changes my life because i know that God will always save me from my sins because he always wants whats best to you.

    I think Salvation is a saving act, an act of rescue. When you put your faith in Jesus Christ, have your sins forgiven, receive eternal life and become a member of God’s family, we speak of it as being saved. But salvation is also a process, and you can think of it in the past, present, and future. You can point to a time when you gave your life to Christ and you can say, I have been saved. Then as you live your life and grow in your faith, you can say, I am being saved. Then as you look forward to Jesus’ return and anticipate your final salvation, you can say, I will be saved. The Bible speaks of salvation in all three of these ways. But I think most of the time when people speak of salvation, they mean the moment when you give your life to Jesus Christ.

    I think salvation is a plan that god gives you, but thatʻs no excuse if something bad happens to you and you blame god for it. Yes i feel like your own salvation is based off of your actions and what you do. I cannot help that people blame god for whats happening in their life. But other wise we have the free agency that god had gave us, that helps us and gives us peace if anyone we love had passed on. Also gives me comfort and peace that when I make good choices, my plan of salvation may be good, and it can save me after death.

    In my opinion, salvation basically means protection. That goes for protecting others or yourself from harm, bad choices, etc. I believe salvation is very necessary because protecting the people you love from bad things can really mean a lot. You donʻt wanna see them going down the wrong path, which is why we must give them salvation to persevere & be determined to stay on the right path of life. For example, if your friend is addicted to vaping, you need to stage an intervention with them to avoid putting them on an unhealthy path. I believe that it is your own choice.

    Salvation to me means being saved from harm or evil. I believe this word just means you have been saved from something, it doesnʻt matter what it is. It could be from spirits, from possession, and any actual physical danger. It is necessary because without it, eventually everyone would go insane and/or ending up dying. Salvation is for everyone, and it IS real.

Salvation is a meaningful word and a strong one to use because for me it has always been to have security over your life and to have peace.
