Romans 13:11
King James Version
11 Jun 2026
“And that, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep: for now is our salvation nearer than when we believed.”
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.
