According to the Strong's Concordance the Greek word sótéria (σωτηρία) has a short deffinition of "deliverance, salvation". But it also means "welfare, prosperity, deliverance, preservation, salvation, safety." http://biblehub.com/greek/4991.htm

According to Thayers σωτηρία, as a nound is first defined as "deliverance, preservation, safety," and then as "salvation". He further defines it as "deliverance from the molestation of enemies", Acts 7:25; and in the context of Luke 1:71 as "preservation (of physical life)" and as "safety, in an ethical sense, that which conduces to the soul's safety..." and translated "health" in Acts 27:34 [1] And in Hebrews 11:7 the author describes the saving of Noah and of his family by the word of God as given to Noah in preparation.

Paul talks about many being blinded in Romans 11:7 [2] so that they cannot see. Then goes on to talk about what had been written in the Old Testament about this blindness[3]

Then he specifically quotes David in Romans 11:9 [4] speaking of tables being a snare and a trap. The quote is from Psalms 69:22 [5] where David talks about what should have been for our welfare being a trap.

Today in the world what we call welfare is generally provided by Benefactors who exercise authority one over the other. Those Benefactors of the people provide the "deliverance, preservation, safety," including "deliverance from the molestation of enemies".

Today it is the socialist governments of the world which provide people saying they believe in Christ with health and welfare. But those people are not doing the will of God but just saying Lord,Lord[6] in their Modern Churches.
