"Kunnathu wrote " If we ask these questions to one hundred differentpeople from different times and places, we will get one hundreddifferent answers. Therefore, it is more reasonable and safer tolimit the questions as how a certain person understood these concepts"The search for understanding the `Truth' is always good. Analyzing by self isthe problem to get the proper answer and according to our old church, itencourages to find out the truth from interpretations by the Church and not fromindividual. That is why Kunnathu says, " If we ask these questions to onehundred different people from different times and places, we will get onehundred different answers.

Ok..Let us come to the point.1 What is salvation?

The answer is simple.SALVATION FROM SIN OR EVIL ? because we are still under the yoke ofthe Evil one or Satan ever since we are at the Paradise. As promisedby the Lord in Genesis chapter 3 as the seed of woman He sent hisson into the world to save His children from Satan.

2. What is the means of salvation?

JUST BELIEVING IN HIM IN OUR BODY, MIND AND SPIRIT AND EMBRAZING HIM(This has a lot of implications as the church reveals.)

3. What is the gospel?The word Gospel means; Good news.What is this good news?`KINGDOM OF GOD IS AT HAND; REPENT'If we have the mindset of real repentance, then it will be easy forus to receive the means of salvation as teaches by the church.

This is why the Orthodox Church's most important AND BEAUTIFULprayer is:"LORD ! HAVE MERCY UPON ME THIS SINNER !!!!
