There is no mention of Jesus as the coming saviour, written prior to the crucifixion of Jesus. The word 'saviour' is used several times in the Old Testament, but always in reference to God, because of some good fortune, or to persons such as Moses. Jesus himself is never mentioned, even indirectly, in the Old Testament.

Luke contains the first New Testament reference to Jesus as a Saviour, born in Bethlehem. This is followed by a reference in Acts, by the same author. The author of John's Gospel knew Luke's Gospel and also used this theme.

Several epistles refer to Jesus as the Saviour.
