What is the meaning of "Everlasting Salvation"? Salvation means to save from sin and from all of its woeful results, of which the "second death" is the ultimate. It is, therefore, a message of life, instead of death, a message of fullness of joy, instead of unutterable woe. This is in brief the "Great Salvation." The whole scheme is beyond our comprehension, yet we can joyfully and thankfully avail ourselves of all of its benefits. What is the nature of the salvation which is assured to the Israel of God?  Isaiah 45:17 But Israel shall be saved in the Lord with an everlasting salvation: ye shall not be ashamed nor confounded world without end.

for he will abundantly pardon.

might he increaseth strength. Even the youths shall
