The Words of Salvation

Mini Roses

I had a conversation many years ago with a brother in Christ about the word, “saved”. He was a very active member in a local Evangelical church.

During our conversation, he conveyed his dislike for the word, “saved”, in relation to people who were born again. He found it offensive and too fundamental.

This has stuck with me over the years. Because, it is a growing problem affecting Christians all across the denominational spectrum.

“But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.” (I Corinthians 2:14)

The Bible makes a clear distinction between the “natural man” and the “spiritual man”. These are not terms used to distinguish between an outwardly good person and an outwardly bad person. This is about people from two different worlds.
