The New Testament speaks about God's salvation for humanity as coming through Jesus, especially in Paul's writings such as the [[Epistle to the Romans]]. Some key passages in the New Testament concerning salvation include [[John 3:16]] and [[Romans 5:8]], both of which speak about God's incredible love for us. John 3:16 is perhaps one of the most famous Biblical verses and reads that "''{{Bible verse|John|3|16|lang=WEB}}''"". Romans 5:8 teaches that "{{Bible verse|Romans|5|8|lang=WEB}}". Romans also speaks about our evil and sin separating us from God in passages such as [[Romans 3:23]] which states that "''{{Bible verse|Romans|3|23|lang=WEB}}''" and [[Romans 5:12]] which states that "''{{Bible verse|Romans|5|12|lang=WEB}}''"
According to the New Testament, Jesus paid this penalty of death for our sins so that we could receive eternal life. [[Romans 6:23]] is an important verse that speaks about this, stating "''{{Bible verse|Romans|6|23|lang=WEB}}'' Passages like [[Romans 10]]:9-14, it is through turning from these sins and believing in Jesus that we receive this gift of eternal life, stating "''{{Bible verse|Romans|10|9|lang=WEB}} {{Bible verse|Romans|10|10|lang=WEB}} {{Bible verse|Romans|10|11|lang=WEB}} {{Bible verse|Romans|10|12|lang=WEB}} {{Bible verse|Romans|10|13|lang=WEB}}''"

→New Testament passages
Salvation is an incredibly important Christian spiritual concept. The [[Bible]] reveals that all people need to be saved (or redeemed) from the consequences of their sin. It teaches that the only way we can receive this salvation is because of [[Jesus]] who came as the saviour for humanity, to restore people into a right relationship with God.
