Definition
Reconciled Soteriology refers to the view that salvation, understood as reconciliation between God and humanity, is complete and not contingent upon future events or institutional mediation.
Context
Within the Yeshuan Model, salvation is not treated as an ongoing transactional process between the individual and God. It is understood as the result of Christ’s completed work within the biblical age. Humanity stands reconciled in principle, and faith does not secure reconciliation but participates in it.
This position reframes traditional salvation language. Justification, atonement, and redemption are interpreted as covenantal realities fulfilled in history rather than mechanisms still awaiting activation.
Implications
If reconciliation is complete, fear-based appeals to salvation lose their structural necessity. Faith shifts from anxiety over eternal outcome to relational orientation in the present. Religious systems cannot claim to distribute or withhold salvation.
This does not eliminate moral responsibility. It removes condemnation as a governing force.
Common Misunderstanding
Reconciled Soteriology is often interpreted as universalism in a simplified sense. The Yeshuan Model does not center on labels. It asserts that reconciliation is established and that faith concerns participation, not securing status.
