Biblical Salvation and the Eastern Orthodox Church

from Contending for the Word Q&A · host Samuel Farag

In this episode of Contending for the Word Q&A, Samuel Farag examines biblical salvation and how it relates to the doctrine and teaching of the Eastern Orthodox Church. He explains what Scripture teaches about salvation by grace alone through faith alone in Christ alone, walking through key passages on justification, regeneration, and the new birth. This episode contrasts the biblical doctrine of salvation with systems that add human works or religious practices to the finished work of Christ. Samuel also offers pastoral guidance on how to think about individuals within doctrinally compromised traditions, emphasizing the importance of gospel clarity, sound doctrine, and belonging to a faithful, Bible-believing local church. Key texts: Romans 10:9; John 1:12–13; Ephesians 2:8–9; Galatians 1; Mark 7.
