Modern Christian doctrine says:
In Christianity, salvation (also called deliverance or redemption) is the "saving [of] human beings from sin and its consequences, which include death and separation from God" and His light. By Christ's death and resurrection, and the justification and appointed Kingdom of God as followers of The Way we may Repent and seek His salvation.
Saving us from "sin and its consequences" would include sins like covetous practices listed in the Ten Commandments, by Christ and the apostles. And the consequences include making you merchandise, returning you to the bondage of Egypt and of course, curse children as a surety for debt.
According to the Strong's Concordance, the Greek word sótéria (σωτηρία)[2] has a short definition of "deliverance, salvation".
But the longer definition defines it as "welfare, prosperity, deliverance, preservation, salvation, safety." The word is often translated as "protection" in reference to physical and spiritual health in other Greek works like Timaeus.
According to Thayer's soteria σωτηρία, as a noun is first defined as "deliverance, preservation, safety," and then as "salvation". He further defines it as "deliverance from the molestation of enemies", Acts 7:25; and in the context of Luke 1:71 as "preservation (of physical life)" and as "safety, in an ethical sense, that which conduces to the soul's safety..." and translated "health" in Acts 27:34 [3] And in Hebrews 11:7 the author describes the saving of Noah and of his family by the word of God as given to Noah in preparation for the disaster coming upon the world.
Paul talks about many being blinded in Romans 11:7 [4] so that they cannot see. Then goes on to talk about what had been written in the Old Testament about this blindness[5]
And in 2 Corinthians 4:4 we see him say that the "gods of the world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not". Has the "gods of the world" today also blinded the people so that they cannot see that their covetous practices have made them merchandise, curse children and as surety for debt entangled them back under the yoke and the bondage of Egypt?
Then he specifically quotes David in Romans 11:9 [6] speaking of tables being a snare and a trap. The quote is from Psalms 69:22 [7] where David talks about what should have been for our welfare being a trap.
Webster's definitions from 1828: |
SALVA'TION, noun [Latin salvo, to save.]
|
The first time we see the word salvation in the Bible it is translated from the Hebrew word yᵉshuw‘ah[8]meaning salvation and deliverance but is also translated help, health, save, saving, and even welfare.
Today in the world what we call welfare is generally provided by Benefactors who exercise authority one over the other. Those Benefactors of the people get power or authority over the people because they provide the "deliverance, preservation, safety," including "deliverance from the molestation of enemies". What they offer is the wages of unrighteousness provided by the unrighteous mammon.
Over and over in the Bible, we are warned about eating at the tables of rulers especially if you are a man given to appetite.[9] Not to have the One purse system of Socialism because by its very nature it makes us Merchandise of us and will curse children.
Another word translated salvation 17 times is teshuwah [10] which includes the root word shava‘ ShemVaAyin meaning "to cry out" followed by a Hey emphasizing that cry but proceeded by the Tav meaning a sincere cry of faith desiring deliverance like the people who were in the bondage of Egypt or the prodigal son who desired to return to his father's house even as a servant.
Today it is the socialist governments of the world which provide health and welfare for people who say they believe in Christ but do not live by the righteousness of God. If the people are dependent upon the sword of the state to provide for their welfare needs, they are living by the sword.[11] Those people are not doing the will of God but just saying Lord, Lord[12] in their Modern Churches.
We are told to seek the kingdom of God and His righteousness. [13]
The kingdom was and is at hand but it manifests itself from within the individual[14] through charity and love.
True followers of Christ who love Him by their nature would not desire to take from their neighbor but would rather give than receive.[15]
The kingdom of God is a living network of people who care about the righteousness of God and their neighbor as much as they care about themselves and are willing to strive to live by faith rather than force.
Through that network of charity operating according to the Perfect law of liberty Christians provided all the Social welfare of their society by free will offerings rather than by forcing their neighbors to contribute to their welfare or salvation.
Most Modern Christians are blind to this simple truth and fail to attend to the Weightier matters of Christ nor the Corban of Christ. This is why we should not and cannot forsake the gathering together and expect to be free souls under God.[16]
The Corban of the world system snares us into a position where the State becomes our Fathers. They identify us with a number that marks our own lack of faith in the way of Christ and seals us in debt. Through our covetous practices we have become Merchandise and cursed our children with unending debt. Only if we repent and return to the Weightier matters of the law, judgment, mercy, and faith which include caring for the needs of our neighbors and the widows and orphans of our society through Pure Religion in matters of health, education, and welfare. We are NOT to provide for the needy of society through the Covetous Practices and the men who call themselves benefactors but who exercise authority one over the other like the socialists do.
The Way of Christ was like neither the way of the world of Rome nor the governments of the gentiles who depend on those fathers of the earth through force, fear and fealty who deliver the people back in bondage again like they were in Egypt. Christ's ministers and true Christians do not depend upon systems of social welfare that force the contributions of the people like the corban of the Pharisees which made the word of God to none effect. Many people have been deceived to go the way of Balaam and the Nicolaitan and out of The Way of Christ and have become workers of iniquity.
The Christian conflict with Rome in the first century Church appointed by Christ was because they would not apply to the fathers of the earth for their free bread but instead relied upon a voluntary network providing a daily ministration to the needy of society through Faith, Hope, and Charity by way of freewill offerings of the people, for the people, and by the people through the perfect law of liberty in Free Assemblies according to the ancient pattern of Tuns or Tens as He commanded.
The modern Christians are in need of repentance.
"Follow me!" —Jesus the Christ.
- One of the most important things to do is to become involved in a network of Charitable Practices. Everyone should want to join a Living Network of Love and Charity.
- If you think you have a calling to be a Minister of God or you might want to dedicate your life to Christ as an Ordained Minister of His Holy Church, contact us to start the process of discipleship and become the benefactors who exercise only love, NOT authority.[17]
The day is approaching and is not far off where the Corban of the world and the Benefactors who exercise authority one over the other will fail. Those who Repent and seek the salvation of Christ through His ways of charity and faith shall have hope that they "might be saved.
Some will say all you have to do is believe but what is belief?
We know that faith without works is dead [18] and that the kingdom is for the living and not for the dead.[19]

Psalms 21:1 «To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David.» The king shall joy in thy strength, O LORD; and in thy salvation<03444> how greatly shall he rejoice! Psalms 21:5 His glory [is] great in thy salvation: honour and majesty hast thou laid upon him. Psalms 24:5 He shall receive the blessing from the LORD, and righteousness from the God of his salvation.
