Sōzō ranges from rescuing someone from drowning or disease to the full salvation of the soul. The Gospels use it both ways — Jesus “saves” the sick and the sinking, picturing the greater rescue he came to accomplish.

Its great use is the salvation of sinners: “the Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost.” To be saved (sōzō) is to be delivered from sin’s penalty and power and brought safely to God — a gift received by faith.
