What does the Bible say about Christ as the Savior of the world?

Answered in 1 source

1 John 2:2 states that Jesus is the propitiation for our sins and for the whole world, indicating His role as the Savior for all of God's people.

The Bible teaches that Jesus Christ is the Savior who came to redeem both Jew and Gentile, as exemplified in 1 John 2:2, which declares that He is the propitiation for our sins, and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world. This signifies that His sacrifice is sufficient and effective for all whom God has chosen for salvation. The apostle John emphasizes that this salvation is universal in scope, transcending national and ethnic boundaries, thereby declaring that Christ's atonement encompasses all of God's people scattered throughout the earth. This assurance of salvation is central to the Gospel message, as it underscores the grace of God demonstrated through His Son.
