Rosesam Posted May 15, 2019 Report Posted May 15, 2019 Q2. "Save" and "Savior" are used so much in Christian circles that they have become almost jargon words that we don't even think about. What are synonyms for "save" and "Savior"? What does a "Savior" actually do to earn the name? Jesus (Yeshua, God our salvation), redeemer, deliverer, defender, Messiah, restorer, rescuer, protector, preserver, liberator, guardian. To earn the name Savior, one must be willing to go to all the extent, even if it results in jeopardizing oneself, in order to save. That’s what Jesus did for us. We were unable to save ourselves. Ephesians says we were dead in sin, i..e. spiritually dead. If we go to a morgue and ask a body to lift its little finger, he would be unable to do, even with all the prompting or cheering, if we are willing to give to the dead body. Similarly, there was no way we could save ourselves in our dead situation. It is in this situation of ours that He gave us a new lease of life and a fresh start to grow in grace and in the knowledge of our Savior all because of what Jesus did on the Cross. That’s why He is truly called Savior, and He is my Savior. Quote

Jonathan Edwards Posted April 22, 2021 Report Posted April 22, 2021 Save, make, deliver and rescuer--all synonymous. The epistle to the Hebrews can answer the second question. Christ is our Joshua and High Priest; His ministry of being High Priest is still in effect. Christ has opened the Holy of holies for us; oh that we can see this more clearly ! We are not outer court Christains; we have immediate access to God at this moment. The enlarged life is for us here on earth. God beckons us to have more of the precious renewal of the Holy Spirit; we can have that holy boldness to come before the Lord in prayer and be active agents of reconciliation to those here on earth.
