This work is dedicated to the study of the phenomenon of salvation in modern Russian Lutheranism. The aim is to study and analyze the views on salvation in modern Russian Lutheranism. The following tasks were performed: the phenomenon of salvation in the religious books of Lutheranism was analyzed; the views of modern Russian Lutheran theologians on the topic of salvation were studied; interviews with Russian Lutheran theologians were conducted; the views on salvation in Russian Lutheranism of the XXI century and Lutheran Soterology of the XVI century were compared. The results confirmed the hypothesis that the views of modern Russian Lutheranism on salvation coincide with the religious tests of the 16th century, but they have their own specifics associated with the problems and realities of modern Lutheranism in Russia.
