I think you're mistaken. Webster's 1828 dictionary (which many KJV-only supporters say is "the" dictionary to use) says:
Quote:
|
SAVIOR, n. savyur. One that saves or preserves; but properly applied only to Jesus Christ, the Redeemer, who has opened the way to everlasting salvation by his obedience and death, and who is therefore called the Savior, by way of distinction, the Savior of men, the Savior of the world. General Washington may be called the saver, but not the savior of his country.

Webster's dictionary does not have "Saviour", I assume because it is an American dictionary and does not include the British spellings.
So what do you think of what I posted about "believe
in"?
