What makes salvation a great salvation?

Answered in 2 sources

Salvation is termed 'great' because it fulfills God's purpose, is achieved at great cost, and brings about transformation in believers.

The phrase 'great salvation' found in Hebrews captures the grandeur of the salvation offered in Christ. It is great in its authorship—it is crafted by God Himself, who devised a plan to redeem His people while maintaining justice and righteousness. This salvation comes at an immense cost, not in silver or gold, but through the sacrificial death of Christ, who purged sins once for all. Furthermore, this salvation enacts true transformation within believers, enabling spiritual regeneration and a new desire to worship and follow Christ. Such profound change is made possible by the great power of God, which actively works in believers to maintain their faith and assure them of their eternal hope.
