Salvation is applied to man by his union with Jesus Christ, whereby Christ takes the sin, guilt, and death of the man upon himself; and gives in their stead his righteousness, innocence, and life. Thus, a full salvation is granted to man, involving nine aspects (Romans 6:1-4):
Legal: Man is a lawbreaker, so God, for Christ’s sake, justifies (Romans 3:19-24)
Social: Man is at enmity with God, so God, for Christ’s sake, reconciles (2 Corinthians 5:18-21)
Moral: Man is sinful, so God, for Christ’s sake, sanctifies (Romans 6:6; Ephesians 4:23-24, 2 Thessalonians 2:13)
Economic: Man is in bondage to Satan, so God, for Christ’s sake, redeems (1 Peter 1:18-19)
Political: Man is in the Kingdom of Satan, so God, for Christ’s sake, delivers (Philippians 3:20; Colossians 1:13)
Familial: Man lost his estate, so God, for Christ’s sake, adopts (Galatians 4:5)
Biological: Man is dead, so God, for Christ’s sake, regenerates (John 3:3-7; Titus 3:5-6)
Cultic: Man is under wrath, so God, for Christ’s sake, forgives (1 John 2:2) Geographic: Man is destined for Hell, so God for Christ’s sake, glorifies (John 17:24; Ephesians 2:6; Colossians 3:1
