Salvation means ‘to be saved.’ That could be applied to being saved from anything, of course. In the New Testament, salvation generally means being saved from bondage to sin, and being saved from the penalty for sinning. Salvation is a gift from God and can’t be earned. Unfortunately, not everyone will be saved… only those who turn to God and trust Him with their lives will be saved.
