How do we know that salvation is only through Christ?
Answered in 2 sources
The Bible explicitly states that salvation is found in no one else but Jesus Christ, who is the ship of our salvation.
The metaphor in Acts 27 depicts the ship as a picture of Christ, embodying the idea that He alone is our means of salvation. The text stresses that without being in the ship, there can be no hope of salvation, paralleling how one must be in Christ to be saved. This concept is reinforced in the New Testament, where Jesus Himself declares, 'I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me' (John 14:6). Thus, the narrative serves as a reminder that true safety and salvation come solely through faith in Jesus Christ and His work.
