Bible Term: Saved

Being saved is to be rescued. In spiritual terms, saved means to be rescued from death.

The Bible says that anyone who calls on Jesus will be saved (Acts 2:21). This is comparable to John 3:36, which says anyone who believes in Jesus will have eternal life.

See salvation and Savior.

Key verse about Saved: “You have saved our lives,” they said. “May we find favor in the eyes of our lord; we will be in bondage to Pharaoh”(Genesis 47:25, NIV).

A lifelong student of the Bible, Peter DeHaan, PhD, wrote the 1,000-page website ABibleADay.com to encourage people to explore the Bible. His main blog and many books urge Christians to push past the status quo and reconsider how they practice their faith in every area of their lives.
