Lordship Salvation is the idea that an unbeliever must commit all areas of his life to Christ as a condition for being saved. The movement began in the 1980’s with the well-intentioned concern to address too much carnality in the Christian world. However, the proposed solution to this legitimate concern was to increase the sole requirement for salvation in an attempt to argue that carnal Christians were never really saved in the first place since they had never initially yielded to Christ’s Lordship.
