Not just for a season or a particular time.
He saves us in truth, His Truth, in the Power of Christ.

Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! In his great
mercy he has given us new birth into a living hope through the
resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, 4 and into an inheritance
that can never perish, spoil or fade—kept in heaven for you, 5 who
through faith are shielded by God’s power until the coming of the
salvation that is ready to be revealed in the last time. 6 In this you
greatly rejoice, though now for a little while you may have had to
suffer grief in all kinds of trials. 7 These have come so that your
faith—of greater worth than gold, which perishes even though refined by
fire—may be proved genuine and may result in praise, glory and honor
when Jesus Christ is revealed. 8 Though you have not seen him, you love
him; and even though you do not see him now, you believe in him and are
filled with an inexpressible and glorious joy,
1 Peter 1:3-8 NIV
This is a Hope, a Joy, we can find today because...
...He is Sovereign over us...
