“But, beloved, we are persuaded better things of you, and things that accompany salvation, though we thus speak.”

σωτηρία
salvation,

σωτηρία
From soter — saviour, the one who rescues from danger. Soteria is comprehensive — healing, wholeness, rescue, preservation. Peter stands before the council and says there is no other name. Not as arrogance. As the deepest mercy — there is one who can save, and His name is Jesus.
