'''Soteriology''', from the Greek '''σωτηρία''' ''sōtēria'' "[[salvation]]", from '''σωτήρ''' ''sōtēr'' "savior, preserver" and '''λόγος''' ''[[logos]]'' "study" or "word", is the study of religious doctrines of salvation. Salvation theory occupies a place of special significance in many religions.
In the academic field of [[Religion|religious]] studies, soteriology is understood by scholars as representing a key theme in a number of different religions and is often studied in a comparative context, by comparing various ideas about what salvation is and how it is obtained.
