(Both
the God and his son Christ Jesus are referred to as
saviors by the apostles. The clear distinction the holy scriptures
make between the roles of the two is that the God
prepared the plan and the
schematic for our salvation

2 Tim. 1:9; Tit. 1:2-3, 2:10, 3:4; Jude 1:25, Rev. 7:10), while Christ
Jesus, who caused himself to follow God’s plan and schematic, caused
himself to become God’s enabling one, or instrument of our salvation (Heb. 5:9; Luke 2:11; John 4:42; Acts
5:31, 13:23; Eph. 5:23; Phil. 3:20; 2 Tim. 1:10; Tit. 1:2-4, 2:13, 3:6;

2 Pet. 1:1, 1:11, 2:20, 3:2, 18; 1 John 4:14).
Titus 2:14 (LIT/UBS4) one who (hos) gave (edōken) himself (heauton) over (huper) [the sake, AE] of us (hēmōn), in order that (hina) he may cause himself to redeem (lutrōsētai) us (hēmas) from (apo) every (pasēs) act of lawlessness (anomias), and (kai) he may cleanse (katharisē) [a] reserved (periousion) people (laon) for himself (heautō), [[a] people, RE] zealous (zēlōtēn) of beautiful (kalōn) works (ergōn)!
