The Language of Salvation: Discovering the Riches of What It Means to Be Saved
By Victor Kuligin
A study of 13 different terms used in the Bible, all of which combine to convey the richness of a single concept: salvation. While explaining what each term means, the author points out how each of these facets of biblical salvation can be used when sharing the gospel.
My endorsement:
“Jonathan Edwards once said, ‘Of all the knowledge that we can ever obtain, the knowledge of God, and the knowledge of ourselves, are the most important.’ Victor Kuligin brings both forms of this precious knowledge together in his latest book, The Language of Salvation. Victor shows what it means to be saved, carefully digging into the language and concepts of Scripture, enabling us to grasp the riches we have in Christ, and equipping us to share the multifaceted diamond of the gospel with those around us. This book is ideal for pastors, teachers, small groups, students, and ordinary Christians who desire a deeper, more satisfying understanding of all that the triune God has done for us.”
