"And they were shouting with a great roar: Salvation comes from our God who sits on the throne, and from the Lamb!" Revelation 7:10

The sweetest song that Heaven ever proclaimed, the most blessed note that ever melted the soul, is salvation!

In Christ we are saved FROM . . .
  death and Hell;
  the worm which never dies;
  the fire which is never quenched;
  the sulphurous flames of the bottomless pit;
  the companionship of tormenting fiends and
  all the foul wretches under which earth has groaned;
  blaspheming God in unutterable woe;
  an eternity of misery without end or hope!

And in Christ we are saved INTO . . .
  Heaven;
  the sight of Jesus as He is;
  perfect holiness and happiness;
  the blissful company of holy angels and glorified saints;
  and all this during the countless ages of a blessed eternity!

What tongue of men or angels can describe the millionth part of what is contained in the word salvation!

"After this I heard what sounded like the roar of a great multitude in Heaven shouting: Hallelujah! Salvation and glory and power belong to our God!
"Revelation 19:1
