Salvation

Salvation is offered freely to all who repent of sin and by faith accept Christ as Savior and Lord. Salvation involves election, which is God's gracious choice of us; regenerations, which is the new birth in Christ; justification, which declares us right with God; reconciliation, which brings peace with God; adoption, which makes us children of God; sanctification, which is spiritual growth by the indwelling of the Holy Spirit; and glorification, which is eternal fellowship with God in heaven.
