#salvation

• Antinomianism — A theological doctrine or radical philosophical attitude maintaining that Christians are freed from the obligation to observe the moral, civil, or ritual laws of the Old Testament, asserting that salvation is obtained exclusively through faith and divine grace; in a broad sense, it represents the rejection or challenging of any normative, legal, or institutional authority in the name of absolute spiritual or ethical freedom.
• Apocatastasis — A theological and eschatological doctrine, originally attributed to Origen, which asserts the ultimate and universal restoration of all conscious creatures to their initial state of divine perfection; the final reconciliation of the world with God, implying the ultimate salvation of all humans and even demons, thus rejecting the idea of eternal damnation. In a general philosophical sense, it represents the periodic return of the cosmos to its primordial pure state.
• The Salvation Army — An international evangelical Christian denomination, an integral part of the universal Christian Church, and one of the largest charitable organizations in the world, founded in London in 1865 by William and Catherine Booth. Structurally organized on a quasi-military framework with uniforms, soldiers, and officers called salvationists, the movement bases its message on the Bible and operates globally to spread the faith and support vulnerable groups through day centers, soup kitchens, and shelters, without discrimination.
