A theological definition of "salvation" usually emphasizes the idea of "deliverance from sin." In this classic work on the subject, Dr. Chafer explores the multifaceted implications of that simple statement. In exploring the larger meaning of the word "salvation," Chafer looks at God's works for the individual, such as atonement, grace, propitiation, forgiveness, justification, imputation, regeneration, adoption, sanctification, redemption, and glorification and also touches on topics such as the threefold message of the Cross and the one condition of salvation. "I rejoice in his faithful and forceful message, and am glad of the privilege of calling attention to a presentation of the way of salvation which is certain to lead all who read it earnestly to a living faith in Christ. . . ." -Dr. W. H. Griffith Thomas Lewis Sperry Chafer(18711952), American Presbyterian clergyman and educator, was born in Rock Creek, Ohio; studied at New Lyme Academy and Oberlin Conservatory and Colle≥ and studied under C. I. Scofield. Ordained in 1900, Chafer had diverse talents.
