mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine
heart that God hath raised him from the dead,
thou shalt be saved [sozo].
Heb. 7:25 Wherefore he is able also to save
[sozo] them to the uttermost that come unto
God by him, seeing he ever liveth to make
intercession for them.

Our Covenant of Shalom:
Wholeness
The revelation of God’s great plan of
redemption moved progressively forward
through the ages. And in the fullness of time,
He sent forth His Son that men might be saved,
made whole. When one believes that God
raised Jesus from the dead and confesses Him
as Lord, one undergoes a new birth. In that
new birth, one is born of the very seed of God.
1 Pet. 1:23 Being born again, not of corrupt-
ible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of
God, which liveth and abideth for ever.
Born-again believers are brand new creatures,
a new species of being never existing until
after what Jesus accomplished in His death,
burial, and triumphant resurrection.
2 Cor. 5:17 Therefore if any man be in Christ,
he is a new creature: old things are passed
away; behold, all things are become new.
