Salvation is a state of spiritual liberation and grace and forgiveness that we are led by the One God.

Besides you, brethren, the gospel which I preached unto you, which you received and on which you stand, by which also, if you hold fast the word which I preached to you, you are saved, if you believed in vain. 1 Corinthians 15:12

In love He predestined us to adoption as sons through Jesus Christ, according to the good pleasure of his will, to the praise of the glory of his grace, which hath made us accepted in the Beloved, in whom we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins according to the riches of his grace, Ephesians 1:5-7.

Salvation comes from God and was provided for man through Jesus Christ from before the beginning of time.
Knowing that you were ransomed from your futile way of life received by tradition from your fathers, not with perishable things like silver or gold, but with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot, and destined before the foundation of the world, but manifested in these last times for your sake, 1 Peter 1:18-20.
And worshiped all the inhabitants of the earth whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world. Revelation 13:8

The reason that man needs to be saved is that this condemned because of sin he has committed, because man disobeyed God in the beginning of history, and has since made a corrupt, this can not be redeemed if himself nor escape the condemnation it deserves.

And the Lord God commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the garden you may eat, but the tree of knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, because the day you eat of it you shall surely die. Genesis 2: 16-17

Those who trust in their wealth, and the multitude of their riches boast, None of them can by any means redeem his brother, Nor give to God a ransom (For the redemption of their life is costly, and there was no ever), to live henceforth for ever, and never see corruption. Psalm 49:6-9

Thus man needs a Savior. The largest and most wonderful truth is that there is a Savior, Christ Jesus the Son of God who was sent into the world according to the promise, which reveals the immense love of God.

She will bear a son and call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins. Matthew 1:21

For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish but have eternal life. John 3:16

So that we might be saved the Lord Jesus Christ had to die on a cross to consummate the redemption of man. The Lord rose from the dead and the third day. Matthew 27:50, John 19:30.

You may wonder what saves us?
The punishment we deserve, or whether the consequences of sin we have committed and the servitude of sin, Romans 6:23, Romans 6:19-22

How can I be saved?
All you need to be saved is to repent of their sins and have faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. Matthew 4:17, Acts 10:43.
You must then fulfill the will of God and witness the reality of salvation. Ephesians 2:8-10, Acts 16:32-34.
