I still don’t agree at all, not even one percent. There is only one savior, Jesus, period.

From Merriam-Webster Dictionary:

Definition of savior

1 : one that saves from danger or destruction
2 : one who brings salvation; specifically, capitalized : Jesus

Your definition is not even the FIRST definition. . . It’s the first definition in numerous dictionaries, and I checked, Fantasywriter.

From the Bible Dictionary

Saviour

one who saves from any form or degree of evil (Emphasis mine— Swordmaker). In its highest sense the word indicates the relation sustained by our Lord to his redeemed ones, he is their Saviour. The great message of the gospel is about salvation and the Saviour. It is the "gospel of salvation." Faith in the Lord Jesus Christ secures to the sinner a personal interest in the work of redemption. Salvation is redemption made effectual to the individual by the power of the Holy Spirit.

So your position is not supportable.

I posted so many comments on this. I don’t believe any Qer read even a fraction of them. Certainly no one ever addressed my central/most important point. A, neither does your post, and B, I’m unwilling to attempt the discussion all over again. Why would anyone want to read and understand my POV now, when no one wanted to do so the first go round?
