Salvation in Christianity

In Christianity, salvation (also called deliverance or redemption) refers to a state that a human being can attain, through the grace of God, by accepting Jesus Christ, in the form of the commitment to his teachings in the Gospels, the belief that Jesus died and miraculously rose again, and, in many denominations, the doing of good deeds and often the recognition that Jesus is the Son of God or God the Son. A person who has achieved salvation is considered to have been saved from sin and its consequences, which include death and separation from God, and, though still sinful, is regarded by God as righteous.
