Rule for Salvation.

Tes

For performing a collection for "salvation" I need  some more rules ,which may enable me   to search into my Resources in my Liabrary. I would like to inlude theology as well.

Mine I'm afraid is relatively simple, but I'll post it and will look back to see how others have made their rules and see if I can improve mine.

Rule: Subject:Soteriology,salvation

Here is my rule -

Subject:(Atonement,Judgment,Justification,Salvation)

You both rely on the subject field - this will rule out lots of books where this is not managed well, including all of Vyrso's books.

For a first take I settled on: (Atonement,Judgment,Justification,Salvation) type:mono -mytag:fiction 

This may include some only tangentially related, but it will not miss e.g. https://vyrso.com/product/21387/whosoever-will (a classic in the Calv/Arm debate that currently is on sale for 2.99) or https://vyrso.com/product/13265/bought-with-blood-the-divine-exchange-at-the-cross (currently free) or - yet another perspective - John Piper's https://vyrso.com/product/13510/jesus-the-only-way-to-god

Thanks for the great suggestion. I'm going to use this now. I'm sure that lots of my other rules rely too much on the subject field as well. I will have to remember to change these in the future.

(Salvation,Redemption,Sovereignty,Atonement,Deliverance,Rescue,Escape,Pardon,Grace,Mercy,Justification,Forgiveness,Reconcile) type:mono -mytag:fiction

But you are going to get tons of hits ..... We could also add many more searches terms as well - Eternal,Satisfaction,Propitiation,Acceptance,Bought,Purchased,Election,Born, etc

I find it easier to set up theological search terms (based upon the Reformed Ordis Salutis):

Election
Effectual Calling
Regeneration
Conversion
Repentance
Faith
Justification
Adoption
Sanctification
Perseverance
Glorification

Note that repentance and faith are part of conversion but I could not get them to indent on this website using an ipad.

Good idea! How would it be possible to organize it?
