G. Campbell Morgan emphasizes that salvation is not merely about escaping hell or receiving forgiveness, but rather it is the empowerment to achieve righteousness. He argues that true salvation satisfies the deepest human longing for righteousness, which is revealed through the gospel of Christ. The gospel provides the necessary power for individuals, regardless of their past, to transform their hearts, thoughts, and actions towards righteousness. Morgan asserts that this divine righteousness is made available to the unrighteous, enabling them to live in accordance with God's will.
