Salvation is a deliverance. In eternal salvation we are delivered from this present evil world. In time salvation we are delivered many times, almost daily, as we sojourn in this world; from sickness when we ask God to heal us, from the consequences of our sins when we ask God's forgiveness, etc. Almost all of the salvation scriptures are pertaining to time salvations which are mistakenly taken to be eternal salvations by most of God's children.
