Jesus is our Savior in so many ways. He is our all in all. He is our everything. He is willing and able to save us from all manner of evil and protect us from anything or anyone who seeks to do harm to our soul. He gave His all for us to have salvation.

2. Genesis 3:1 NIV Now the serpent was more
crafty than any of the wild animals the LORD
God had made. He said to the woman, "Did God
really say, 'You must not eat from any tree in the
garden'?" 2 The woman said to the serpent, "We
may eat fruit from the trees in the garden, 3 but
God did say, 'You must not eat fruit from the
tree that is in the middle of the garden, and you
must not touch it, or you will die.'"

3. 4 "You will not certainly die," the serpent said to
the woman. 5 "For God knows that when you eat
from it your eyes will be opened, and you will be
like God, knowing good and evil." 6 When the
woman saw that the fruit of the tree was good
for food and pleasing to the eye, and also
desirable for gaining wisdom, she took some
and ate it. She also gave some to her husband,
who was with her, and he ate it.

4. 7 Then the eyes of both of them were opened,
and they realized they were naked; so they
sewed fig leaves together and made coverings
for themselves. 8 Then the man and his wife
heard the sound of the LORD God as he was
walking in the garden in the cool of the day, and
they hid from the LORD God among the trees of
the garden. 9 But the LORD God called to the
man, "Where are you?"

5. 10 He answered, "I heard you in the garden, and
I was afraid because I was naked; so I hid." 11
And he said, "Who told you that you were
naked? Have you eaten from the tree that I
commanded you not to eat from?" 12 The man
said, "The woman you put here with me—she
gave me some fruit from the tree, and I ate it."
13 Then the LORD God said to the woman,
"What is this you have done?" The woman said,
"The serpent deceived me, and I ate."

6. 14 So the LORD God said to the serpent,
"Because you have done this, "Cursed are you
above all livestock and all wild animals! You will
crawl on your belly and you will eat dust all the
days of your life. 15 And I will put enmity
between you and the woman, and between your
offspring and hers; he will crush your head, and
you will strike his heel."

7. 16 To the woman he said, "I will make your
pains in childbearing very severe; with painful
labor you will give birth to children. Your desire
will be for your husband, and he will rule over
you." 17 To Adam he said, "Because you
listened to your wife and ate fruit from the tree
about which I commanded you, 'You must not
eat from it,' "Cursed is the ground because of
you; through painful toil you will eat food from it
all the days of your life.

8. 18 It will produce thorns and thistles for you,
and you will eat the plants of the field. 19 By the
sweat of your brow you will eat your food until
you return to the ground, since from it you were
taken; for dust you are and to dust you will
return." 20 Adam named his wife Eve, because
she would become the mother of all the living.
21 The LORD God made garments of skin for
Adam and his wife and clothed them.

9. This is how sin entered the world.
The first human sin if you will.
Because of this sin God had to make the first
sacrifice.
An innocent animal was put to death to cover
them, clothe them.
This was where it all started.
After they had been covered God ran them out
of the perfect place He had made for them, the
Garden of Eden.

10. It was perfection and in perfection there can be
no sin.
They were now sinful and sin can have no part
of perfection, just as light can have no part of
darkness and vice versa, darkness can have no
part of light.
Perfection can have no relation with sin.

11. Since that day every person has sinned.
When Moses was given the law there was a
provision made to offer innocent animals which
were perfect in as much as they could not have
spot or blemish, not lame or blind.
It had to be a perfect specimen.

12. Leviticus 22:21 NIV When anyone brings from
the herd or flock a fellowship offering to the
LORD to fulfill a special vow or as a freewill
offering, it must be without defect or blemish to
be acceptable. 22 Do not offer to the LORD the
blind, the injured or the maimed, or anything
with warts or festering or running sores. Do not
place any of these on the altar as a food offering
presented to the LORD.

13. They were to offer the perfect, innocent animal
as a sacrifice because of their sin.
In fact God commanded a special offering to be
made when sin is committed.
It was call a sin sacrifice or guilt sacrifice.
We see it established when God informs Moses
about it in Lev. 6:24-30.

14. Leviticus 6:24 NIV The LORD said to Moses, 25
"Say to Aaron and his sons: 'These are the
regulations for the sin offering: The sin offering
is to be slaughtered before the LORD in the
place the burnt offering is slaughtered; it is
most holy. 26 The priest who offers it shall eat
it; it is to be eaten in the sanctuary area, in the
courtyard of the tent of meeting.

15. 27 Whatever touches any of the flesh will
become holy, and if any of the blood is
spattered on a garment, you must wash it in the
sanctuary area. 28 The clay pot the meat is
cooked in must be broken; but if it is cooked in
a bronze pot, the pot is to be scoured and
rinsed with water. 29 Any male in a priest's
family may eat it; it is most holy. 30 But any sin
offering whose blood is brought into the tent of
meeting to make atonement in the Holy Place
must not be eaten; it must be burned up.

16. Sin Offering. This bloody offering, also known
as a guilt offering, was presented for
unintentional or intentional sins for which there
was no possible restitution (Lev. 4:5-13; 6:24-30).
If the offering was not accompanied by
repentance, divine forgiveness was withheld
(Num. 15:30). Expiation or covering (forgiveness)
of sin was represented by the blood smeared on
the horns of the altar of incense or burnt
offering and poured out at the base of the altar.

17. The size (value) and sex of the beast offered
depended on the rank of the offerer. The higher
his post the more responsibility he bore.
The penalty for all sin, death, was vicariously
inflicted on the sacrificial animal.
Guilt for the worshiper's sin was transferred
symbolically to the animal through the laying on
of the offerer's hands.

18. I have to tell you I for one would be broke
buying perfect animals to sacrifice for all the
sins in my life. Everyone who believes in God
would have to raise a lot of animals to offer as
sin sacrifices. Can you imagine having to haul
your best animal out of the herd to the priest
and sacrifice it so you can please God because
of your sin? What a wearisome thing to
consider. You have to know the priest ate very
well.

19. Isaiah gives people hope in the 53rd chapter of
his book.
Perhaps no longer will they have to bear the
guilt of their sins.
Someone who is able and perfect will bear the
guilt and punishment for them.

20. Isaiah 53:1 NIV Who has believed our message
and to whom has the arm of the LORD been
revealed? 2 He grew up before him like a tender
shoot, and like a root out of dry ground. He had
no beauty or majesty to attract us to him,
nothing in his appearance that we should desire
him. 3 He was despised and rejected by
mankind, a man of suffering, and familiar with
pain. Like one from whom people hide their
faces he was despised, and we held him in low
esteem.

21. 4 Surely he took up our pain and bore our
suffering, yet we considered him punished by
God, stricken by him, and afflicted. 5 But he was
pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed
for our iniquities; the punishment that brought
us peace was on him, and by his wounds we are
healed. 6 We all, like sheep, have gone astray,
each of us has turned to our own way; and the
LORD has laid on him the iniquity of us all.

22. 7 He was oppressed and afflicted, yet he did not
open his mouth; he was led like a lamb to the
slaughter, and as a sheep before its shearers is
silent, so he did not open his mouth. 8 By
oppression and judgment he was taken away.
Yet who of his generation protested? For he was
cut off from the land of the living; for the
transgression of my people he was punished.

23. 9 He was assigned a grave with the wicked, and
with the rich in his death, though he had done
no violence, nor was any deceit in his mouth. 10
Yet it was the LORD's will to crush him and
cause him to suffer, and though the LORD
makes his life an offering for sin, he will see his
offspring and prolong his days, and the will of
the LORD will prosper in his hand.

24. 11 After he has suffered, he will see the light of
life and be satisfied; by his knowledge my
righteous servant will justify many, and he will
bear their iniquities. 12 Therefore I will give him
a portion among the great, and he will divide the
spoils with the strong, because he poured out
his life unto death, and was numbered with the
transgressors. For he bore the sin of many, and
made intercession for the transgressors.

25. Who could be this servant? Who was ever
perfect, without sin, and able to suffer for others
who are sinful? This one would truly be a
savior in as much as this person would save
those who sin from the commanded sin
sacrifices and more importantly from the death,
the dieing God told Adam & Eve would occur as
a result of disobeying Him. The death the
animal received instead of the sinner.
There can be only one who fits this description,
Jesus, the Son of God.

26. Luke 2:5 NIV He went there to register with Mary,
who was pledged to be married to him and was
expecting a child. 6 While they were there, the time
came for the baby to be born, 7 and she gave birth
to her firstborn, a son. She wrapped him in cloths
and placed him in a manger, because there was no
guest room available for them. 8 And there were
shepherds living out in the fields nearby, keeping
watch over their flocks at night. 9 An angel of the
Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord
shone around them, and they were terrified.

27. 10 But the angel said to them, "Do not be afraid.
I bring you good news that will cause great joy
for all the people. 11 Today in the town of David
a Savior has been born to you; he is the
Messiah, the Lord. 12 This will be a sign to you:
You will find a baby wrapped in cloths and lying
in a manger." 13 Suddenly a great company of
the heavenly host appeared with the angel,
praising God and saying, 14 "Glory to God in
the highest heaven, and on earth peace to those
on whom his favor rests."

28. A Savior was born!
We all know the story of how Mary, Jesus’
Mother, was a virgin and she was able to
conceive by God, the Holy Spirit.
This was truly the Son of God, one who is like
no other man.
He has it within Him the perfection that no one
else has.
Don’t get me wrong He was 100% human, but
He was 100% divine, God.

29. Because He was human He had to overcome the
temptations we all face.
Because He was God He had the ability within
Him, the power of perfection we do not possess,
as we are 100% human, only.
Hebrews 2:18 NIV Because he himself suffered
when he was tempted, he is able to help those
who are being tempted.

30. Jesus was tempted in every way we are. No, we
don’t have record of all the times He was
tempted but the Scriptures say He was so He
was. How many times in 40 days are you
tempted? Remember He was out in the
wilderness 40 days, weak from not eating so
Satan had a lot of time to throw all types of
temptations at Him. You and I would not last
long at all under those conditions. It is through
Jesus we can be saved, rescued from the
tempter, Satan. He is our Savior from Satan.

31. Colossians 1:12 NIV and giving joyful thanks to
the Father, who has qualified you to share in the
inheritance of his holy people in the kingdom of
light. 13 For he has rescued us from the
dominion of darkness and brought us into the
kingdom of the Son he loves, 14 in whom we
have redemption, the forgiveness of sins. 15
The Son is the image of the invisible God, the
firstborn over all creation.

32. Isn’t this WONDERFUL!!
Jesus saves us from Satan bringing us into His
kingdom forgiving us our sins and setting us
free. But wait, there’s more! Jesus is our
Savior from Punishment as well.
Romans 8:1 NIV Therefore, there is now no
condemnation for those who are in Christ
Jesus, 2 because through Christ Jesus the law
of the Spirit who gives life has set you free from
the law of sin and death.

33. 3 For what the law was powerless to do because
it was weakened by the flesh, God did by
sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful
flesh to be a sin offering. And so he condemned
sin in the flesh, 4 in order that the righteous
requirement of the law might be fully met in us,
who do not live according to the flesh but
according to the Spirit.

34. In addition to saving us from punishment we
find in the 4th verse we are saved from obeying
our own desires.
In the 3rd verse we are saved from the Law of
Moses that we just learned was weak.
Jesus saves us from slavery and in fact makes
us as His children, co-heirs of The Father.
This passage also nails down that we were
saved, set free from the Law.

35. Galatians 4:4 NIV But when the set time had
fully come, God sent his Son, born of a woman,
born under the law, 5 to redeem those under the
law, that we might receive adoption to sonship.
6 Because you are his sons, God sent the Spirit
of his Son into our hearts, the Spirit who calls
out, "Abba, Father." 7 So you are no longer a
slave, but God's child; and since you are his
child, God has made you also an heir.

36. Jesus, our Savior from the Law.
Thank goodness!
Read the books of law and thanksgiving will
flow from your heart that you have been saved
from having to keep it.
Jesus saved you from slavery and made you a
child, an heir of God’s.

37. Jesus is our Savior from God’s wrath.
It isn’t hard to recall the times God’s anger
burned and the great destruction that followed.
Sodom & Gomorrah, the flood, Aquilla &
Priscilla, Jonah, the Israelites building an idol
while Moses was on the mountain.
If you belong to Jesus you are saved from God’s
anger, His wrath.

38. 1 Thessalonians 1:7 NIV And so you became a
model to all the believers in Macedonia and Achaia.
8 The Lord's message rang out from you not only in
Macedonia and Achaia—your faith in God has
become known everywhere. Therefore we do not
need to say anything about it, 9 for they themselves
report what kind of reception you gave us. They tell
how you turned to God from idols to serve the living
and true God, 10 and to wait for his Son from
heaven, whom he raised from the dead—Jesus, who
rescues us from the coming wrath.

39. With being saved from God’s anger in mind we
go to the big ticket, the everlasting wrath of
God. Jesus is our Savior from Hell and has
made us citizens of heaven.
Philippians 3:17 NIV Join together in following
my example, brothers and sisters, and just as
you have us as a model, keep your eyes on
those who live as we do. 18 For, as I have often
told you before and now tell you again even with
tears, many live as enemies of the cross of
Christ.

40. 19 Their destiny is destruction, their god is their
stomach, and their glory is in their shame. Their
mind is set on earthly things. 20 But our
citizenship is in heaven. And we eagerly await a
Savior from there, the Lord Jesus Christ, 21
who, by the power that enables him to bring
everything under his control, will transform our
lowly bodies so that they will be like his
glorious body.

41. YES! We will have glorious bodies like His and
we know His body would never experience Hell.
Jesus is our Savior from hunger.
We’re not talking about physical hunger we are
talking about food for the soul,
food that brings eternal life.
John 6:35 NIV Then Jesus declared, "I am the
bread of life. Whoever comes to me will never
go hungry, and whoever believes in me will
never be thirsty.

42. Jesus saves us from being thirsty, thirsty for
life.
The water of life He gives us brings eternal life
to our soul.
We will die a physical death, but our soul won’t
die, it will live eternally because it has drank of
Jesus, the eternal flowing fountain.

43. John 4:13 NIV Jesus answered, "Everyone who
drinks this water will be thirsty again, 14 but
whoever drinks the water I give them will never
thirst. Indeed, the water I give them will become
in them a spring of water welling up to eternal
life."

44. In addition to saving us from hunger & thirst He
is our Savior from Darkness.
Again not physical darkness, but darkness that
will make us fall into the pit of eternal death.
John 8:12 NIV When Jesus spoke again to the
people, he said, "I am the light of the world.
Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness,
but will have the light of life."

45. Jesus saves us from darkness that brings death
and provides light that gives life.
When we belong to Jesus and are feasting on
the Bread of Life, drinking from the Fountain of
Life, walking in the life giving light we are safe
from the thief who seeks to steal our soul.
Jesus saves us from one who plans to steal our
soul to die with him.

46. John 10:27 NIV My sheep listen to my voice; I
know them, and they follow me. 28 I give them
eternal life, and they shall never perish; no one
will snatch them out of my hand.

47. Jesus is our Savior in so many ways.
He is our all in all.
He is our everything.
He is willing and able to save us from all manner
of evil and protect us from anything or anyone
who seeks to do harm to our soul.
He gave His all for us to have salvation.

48. The Hebrew and Greek words for salvation
imply the ideas of deliverance, safety,
preservation, healing, and soundness.
Salvation is the great inclusive word of the
Gospel, gathering into itself all the redemptive
acts and processes: as justification,
redemption, grace, propitiation, imputation,
forgiveness, sanctification, and glorification.
Salvation is in three tenses:

49. (1) The believer has been saved from the guilt
and penalty of sin #Lu 7:50 1Co 1:18 2Co 2:15 Eph
2:5,8 2Ti 1:9 and is safe.
(2) the believer is being saved from the habit
and dominion of sin #Ro 6:14 Php 1:19 2:12,13 2Th
2:13 Ro 8:2 Ga 2:19,20 2Co 3:18.

50. (3) The believer is to be saved in the sense of
entire conformity to Christ. #Ro 13:11 Heb 10:36
1Pe 1:5 1Jo 3:2.
Salvation is by grace through faith, is a free gift,
and wholly without works #Ro 3:27,28 4:1-8 6:23
Eph 2:8.
The divine order is: first salvation, then works
#Eph 2:9,10 Tit 3:5-8.

51. 2 Corinthians 5:17 NIV Therefore, if anyone is in
Christ, the new creation has come: The old has
gone, the new is here! 18 All this is from God,
who reconciled us to himself through Christ and
gave us the ministry of reconciliation: 19 that
God was reconciling the world to himself in
Christ, not counting people's sins against them.
And he has committed to us the message of
reconciliation.

52. 20 We are therefore Christ's ambassadors, as
though God were making his appeal through us.
We implore you on Christ's behalf: Be
reconciled to God. 21 God made him who had
no sin to be sin for us, so that in him we might
become the righteousness of God.

53. Have you made peace with God?
Have you been made acceptable to God?
Are you listening to His message?
Please do not ignore such great salvation.
Don’t ignore Jesus our Savior.
