ARTICLE X- GOD’S PLAN FOR MANKIND’S SALVATION

REDEMPTIONCORPS INTERNATIONAL believes and proclaims and teaches: that salvation is by God’s grace and that salvation is free to all by grace through faith: all must accept Christ, the Saviour, and those who willfully reject the Spirit of Grace will face eternal separation from God in an actual place of fiery punishment called “hell.” However, when a sinner repents and disowns themselves and receives the Lord Jesus Christ as Saviour, that sinner also receives eternal life, forgiveness of sins, and deliverance from divine Wrath— healing and restoration spiritually and physically and even financially is provided in salvation. It is also the divine Will of God that the believer conform to the image of His Son in thought, word and deed. 

Salvation biblically defined is From the Hebrew word SHALOM, meaning peace, harmony, wholeness, completeness, prosperity, welfare and tranquility and its Greek equivalent SOZO, translated "saved, healed, delivered." The word is used over 100 times in the New Testament to refer to the "complete package" of salvation, deliverance and healing - THIS IS THE SALVATION REDEMPTIONCORPS INTERNATIONAL CHURCH believes, proclaims and teaches to all creation!


Genesis 3:15 

(The Protoevangelium— the impetus that began mankind’s redemption from eternal death and the power of darkness)

And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel.


John 3:15-16

That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life. For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.


2 Peter 1:4-5

Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.  And beside this, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue; and to virtue knowledge;


 John 1:12

But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:


John 10:27-30

My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me: And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand. My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father's hand. I and my Father are one.


Romans 10:1-3

Brethren, my heart's desire and prayer to God for Israel is, that they might be saved. For I bear them record that they have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge. For they being ignorant of God's righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God.


 John 5:24

Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life.


Romans 8:28-29 & 35-39

And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose. For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren.

&

Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? As it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter. Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us. For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.


Romans 11:29

For the gifts and calling of God are without repentance.


Ephesians 1:4-7 & 12-14

According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love: Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will, To the praise of the glory of his grace, wherein he hath made us accepted in the beloved. In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace;

&

That we should be to the praise of his glory, who first trusted in Christ. In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise, Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of his glory.
