The Combination Theos Soter as Explanation of the Primitive Christian Use of Soter as Title and Name of Jesus STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM During its entire history, Christianity has been a religion of redemption. Salvation is a very characteristic word in the Christian vocabulary. The theology of redemption has varied; the proclamation of salvation has been continuous. The development of the Christian doctrine of salvation has been retarded or deteriorated by a host of faults such as bigoted intolerance, penance and satisfaction hypotheses, legalism, the cultivation of superstition and magic; but even these perversions of the religion of Jesus desired to be regarded as ways of salvation. To demonstrate the proposition that Christianity from its origin has been a religion of salvation, reference may be made by way of illustration to some of the trends in the primitive era of Christianity. Christian gnosticism, though seeking to separate Christianity from its past, was a plan of salvation. Each of the vagrant forms of Christian gnosticism has much to say regarding theS oter and salvation. The Naassene hymn illustrates the gnostic emphasis on redemption. Then Jesus said, Behold, OF ather, This being pursued by ills, Wanders about upon the earth Far from thy breath. Seeking to escape from bitter chaos And knows not how to pass through it. Therefore, send me, OF ather; Bearing the seals I shall descend, All the aeons I shall pass through All mysteries I shall reveal And the forms of the gods show; And the secrets of the holy path, Calling it gnosis, I shall transmit.
