The Spectrum of Salvation

Roman 1 Paul introduces a letter so to speak a theme (v1-17) to the Roman with a the highlighting the gospel as Gods power for salvation through faith in Jesus Christ. He speaks on the universality of sin and the need for faith in Jesus Christ. Then in V18-32) there is an emphasis on the ungodliness and unrighteousness while showing how Gods invisible attributes are evident in creation, leaving humanity without excuse for rejecting Him. The spectrum of salvation includes justification, sanctification, separation, and glorification. The salvation conveyed in the Scriptures delivers individuals from their past sines, the power of sin and eventually one day from the very presence of sin. The spectrum of salvation includes the following truths

Decision. Salvation starts with a decision. We are not saved by chance but by choice. WE must make an intelligent and deliberate choice to be saved. The basis of our choice is the composition of the Sovereign; the palmist declares that the entrance of the Word of God gives light. The Psalmist concludes, “The law of the Lord is perfect, converting the soul: the testimony of the Lord i s sure, making wise the simple. The statures of the Lord are right, rejoicing the heart: the commandment of the Lord is pure, enlighten the eyes, The fear of the Lord is clean, enduring forever: the judgment of the Lord are true and righteous altogether. More to be desired are they than gold, yea than much fine gold: sweeter also more than honey and the honeycomb. Moreover, by them your servant is warned, and in leaping them there is great reward” (Ps 19:7-11). the genuine choice is be saved begins with the proper concept of oneself (Eph 2; Rom 3). It continues with a burden of sin- a consciousness of sin, followed by a brokenness- a confession of sin, followed by a beseeching- calling on the Saviour and concludes with a behavior- the conduct that evidence salvation. Life is made up of choices. Salvation comes as result of the proper choice rather than by chance.

Deliverance. Salvation delivers one from death, darkness, dominion, disposition, deeds, desease adn disobedience.
