What Salvation? II

“The RECIPIENTS of Salvation”

 

The concept of salvation is carried through from Genesis to Revelation as the process through which relationship with God is established.  Because of the entrance of sin into the world (Rom. 5:12), God, in His infinite foreknowledge had set into motion all of the constituent elements that would be required to bring about redemption, reconciliation, and restoration of what had been lost “in Adam”.   From this perspective, the Scriptures demonstrate both a corporate (collective) and an individual (personal) aspect through which the process of redemptive history would become complete.   The last book of the Bible describes those included and those excluded and the factors that determine the stance each person has with God.  

Is everyone to be saved?  The Bible teaches that Christ tasted “death for everyone” (Heb. 2:9), for the “whole world” (I John 2:2), and "not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance” (II Pet. 3:9).  Since this is true then how is it possible that anyone would be excluded from salvation for any reason?  What about the elect?  Does God choose those who are to be saved and those who are to be lost?  Our studies of salvation will help us to better understand what the Scriptures teach in this regard.
