“Salvation as self-help” is only the first of many common misunderstandings that can become pitfalls in the way we understand and live our faith. In this session, Dr. Barber addresses the common misconception that salvation is like “fire insurance”:that it’s all about saving people from the fires of Hell. Jesus doesn’t simply save us from Hell; he also saves us for something wonderful:“abundant life.” Dr. Barber explains how a proper understanding of the Old Testament concepts of law and covenant reveals the essential link between God’s law and our happiness and fulfillment.
