What the fuck do you mean by "salvation?" From the Latin salvationem? sOtEria is a simple word that refers to deliverance, rescue, made whole, being kept safe and sound, etc. It is a general word that cannot qualify ANTHING you want it to be. If you wish to pick my Hebrew to Aramaic to English brain then keep it simple. By the way, I always start with Hebrew--always! chattah 'ath?-- How in the hell does flinging an arrow from a bow without any concern for the harm it may cause self, or others=sinistra? There is no list of "sins" ANYWHERE in the bible! Whatever is not righteousness, whatever is not faith(trust), whatever is sexual misconduct(I will not and cannot qualify).
Jesus was a Jew who preached the End of the World to his fellow Jews, some of whom were loyal to the Romans; that's what got Jesus crucifixied.
