Truth about Salvation

The Truth About Salvation is a deeply scriptural, four-chapter exploration of what salvation really means for the believer. Mary Banks begins by setting the boundaries of the faith, showing that the life of Christ is the defining standard for everything the Church believes and practices. Drawing from 1 Corinthians, Romans, Galatians, and John, she establishes that the Spirit of God is the only means by which believers can discern spiritual truth and walk in the fullness of what God has freely given. The second chapter tackles one of the most contested subjects in Christian theology: the saving of the soul. Banks carefully distinguishes between the body, soul, and spirit, using Old Testament law and New Testament revelation to demonstrate that it is the soul that is judged, saved, and transformed. She traces the soul's captivity under the spirit of sin and its cry for deliverance, answered fully in Jesus Christ. Chapter three examines what it means to no longer be in the flesh, walking readers through Romans 7 in detail to show the pre-salvation condition of bondage and the radical positional change that occurs at the new birth. The final chapter calls believers to actively put on the new man, the body now indwelt by Christ, freed from the law of sin and death and empowered to manifest the divine nature. This book is ideal for believers who want to move beyond a surface understanding of salvation and grasp the deep mystery of godliness that was hidden in God and revealed through the Church. It is written in a clear, teaching style rooted in King James scripture and is suitable for personal study, small groups, or ministry training.
