The work of Christ is Salvation !
Lk 2:30
30 For mine eyes have seen thy salvation,
Little be it known, this statement is meant of the Death/Work of Christ, which means that through His Work is accomplished full Salvation for all Gods People; and no its not just a opportunity for Salvation, for that makes Christ's Salvation fall short of God's Glory, makes it only a Whimsical possibility, a wish, but its a Salvation that actually saves sinners from their sins 1 Tim 1:15
15 This is a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief.
This means to actualize their Salvation from sin, anything short of that would be failure. The word Save is the greek word sózó:
I save, heal, preserve, rescue.
He rescues and preserves sinners from the penalty and power of sin ! He heals them ! How does He do that ? By His Stripes 1 Pet 2:24
24 Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed.
That word healed iaomai
I heal, generally of the physical, sometimes of spiritual, disease.
to make whole i. e. to free from errors and sins, to bring about (one's) salvation:
Bring about means cause to occur, effect, produce, cause to exist, and this confirms that He brings about the actualization of their Salvation and not a possibility !
Lk 1:68-77
68 Blessed be the Lord God of Israel; for he hath visited and redeemed his people,
69 And hath raised up an horn of salvation for us in the house of his servant David;
70 As he spake by the mouth of his holy prophets, which have been since the world began:
71 That we should be saved from our enemies, and from the hand of all that hate us;
72 To perform the mercy promised to our fathers, and to remember his holy covenant;
73 The oath which he sware to our father Abraham,
74 That he would grant unto us, that we being delivered out of the hand of our enemies might serve him without fear,
75 In holiness and righteousness before him, all the days of our life.
76 And thou, child, shalt be called the prophet of the Highest: for thou shalt go before the face of the Lord to prepare his ways;
77 To give knowledge of salvation unto his people by the remission of their sins, 40
... that I do not hold to your erroneous dogma does not mean I do not believe in my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
