How does the Christian proclamation of salvation in Jesus Christ relate to the lives of the people who suffer most? Does salvation consist entirely of the hope for eternal life with God? How might the church effectively preach the message of salvation in Christ today? In Jesus and Salvation, Robin Ryan adopts a historical approach to these questions, discussing key themes and classic authors in the developing tradition about Christ the Savior. He examines modern soteriology by engaging the thought of Karl Rahner, Edward Schillebeeckx, Gustavo Gutiérrez, and Elizabeth Johnson. He also discusses contemporary conceptions of salvation within an evolutionary view of the cosmos as well as issues related to the Christian confession of Jesus as universal savior in a religiously pluralistic world. Ryan concludes by offering his own reflections on the meaning of salvation from God in Jesus Christ. By understanding salvation in Christ as both gift and call, Ryan invites readers to recognize in the saving grace of God a responsibility for the well-being of the human family and the rest of creation.

This book enables one to judge Theodore's christological statements in the wider context of how he conceives of Christ's roles in salvation.

In this book, the problem of the reality of salvation is addressed by T.F. Torrance's doctrine of "the vicarious humanity of Christ." Through this approach, salvation as humanization is affirmed, yet without the problems of anthropocentric theologies. This book is unique in that it offers both a survey of contemporary Christian thinking on salvation as well as a constructive alternative based on Torrance's doctrine, a significant yet neglected contribution to modern theology.

In this unique and insightful work, Robert Peterson insists that we look afresh at all that the Bible teaches about who our Savior is and what he has accomplished, with the conviction that a careful examination of this teaching will lead us to adoration and worship. Peterson explains the saving work of Christ, both his deeds and the biblical pictures illustrating them, and thereby points to the magnitude of what Jesus did to save sinners. Offered here is a substantive, significant, and enduring treatise on a key Christian doctrine—the work of Christ.

The title and the contents of the book came to me in the middle of the night. I was struggling with the security of the salvation. I was tossing and turning, losing sleepless nights over salvation. I found out there are many believers that struggle with their salvation too. So I decided to write a book on the assurance of salvation, even if there are many topics on salvation that have been written. I decided to embark on writing a book on salvation. My inspiration to write a book on salvation came from the Holy Spirit. The title of the book was also from the Holy Spirit. I was totally guided by the Holy Spirit in writing this book, along with references from the Bible. The book is mainly about salvation. The title of the book is an attention getter. The title of the book, No Jesus, No Heaven, No Salvation, generates curiosity. As the saying goes, never judge a book by its cover.
