The article analyses the soteriological aspects of the theology of Joseph Volotsky, an outstanding figure of Ancient Rus. The teaching of salvation is a central point in his theological views. The essence of Joseph Volotsky’s soteriology was determined by the low evaluation of the nature of a human as a sinful creature and the denial of his/her free will. According to Volotsky, a human being is saved first of all through faith, not through deeds. These ideas of Joseph Volotsky about the human soul salvation preceded the similar concept of Martin Luther.
Key words: soteriology, human nature, freedom of will, Joseph Volotsky, Martin Luther.
