Salvation

Salvation or eternal life is both central and clear within the Christian perspective. All complexities within church, religion, and spirituality give way to the simple and powerful message from the cross. The Scriptures proclaim - and the Book of Common Prayer echoes - the solution to our personal dilemma of standing guilty of sin before a perfect Holy and just God. God sent His only Son into the world to die on a cross in order that the world might be saved through Him. Jesus' sacrificial death once offered provides atonement for all the sins of those who faithfully claim His Holy Name. As St. Paul taught the believers in Rome, it is simply believing in your heart and confessing with your mouth that God raised the Lord Jesus Christ from the dead that brings salvation. The Church is God's authorized vehicle to proclaim this message in word and communicate it mystically through the sacraments. Come and join us and experience the transformative presence of Christ, through the Holy Spirit by God's grace at St. Boniface Episcopal Church.
