What can we deduce from this ?!

Who is the Savior and Redeemer ?

a) God is the Savior and the Redeemer.He alone redeems and saves .

The Bible confirms this explicity :

" Thus says the Lord , the King of Israel , and His Redeemer , the Lord of hosts ; ' I am the First and I am the the Last , besides Me there is no God "

( Isa.44:6 )

" As for our Redeemer , the Lord of hosts is His name , the Holy One of Israel "
( Isa.47:4 )

" I , the Lord , am your Savior , and Your Redeemer , the Mighty One of Jacob "
( Isa.60:16 )

b) Christ Jesus is the Savior and the Redeemer of the World :

The angel at the Annunciation said that He would be called Jesus ,
" for He will save His people from their sins "
( Mt.1:21 )

His salvation is not confined to His people , for He said ,

" For I did not come to judge the world but to save the world " ( Jn.12:47 )

It is also said of Him ,

" this is indeed the Christ , the Savior of the world "
( Jn.4:42 )

And He said about Himself that He
" has come to save that which was lost "

( Mt.18:11 ) ; ( Lk.19:10 )

" Christ has come to save us from the curse of the Law "
( Gal.3:13 )

Christ has offered Perfect eternal salvation :

The apostle said that Christ as High Priest ,

" is also able to save to the uttermost "
( Heb.7:25 )

He also says ,

" How shall we escape if we neglect so great a salvation .....? "
( Heb.2:3 )

Christ alone is the Savior :

St. Peter said in this regard ,

" Nor is there salvation in any other "
( Acts 4:12 )

What can we deduce from all this ?

Any answer from our beloved ADA members !

In statement "a" these words are to covenant Israel.

In statement "b" you use John 12:47 to discredit Matthew 1:21.
There is no conflict in these two Scripture passages. You need to "qualify" the identity of "the world" in John 12:47. Once you do this then Matthew 1:21 is more clearly seen.

Salvation is of the LORD

His word the living word, immutable, throughout time, space, without variance. Amen, gentlemen.

Romans 14 verse 5 One person regards one day holier than other days, and another regards them all alike. 3 Each must be fully convinced in his own mind.
