The Bible teaches to look unto Jesus as the author and finisher of our faith, emphasizing our need for Him amid our struggles and sin.
In Hebrews 12:1-2, we are encouraged to lay aside every weight and sin that hinders us and to look unto Jesus, who is the author and finisher of our faith. This looking unto Jesus is not just a physical gaze but a heart posture of reliance and faith. It is acknowledging our weaknesses and sins, and recognizing that Christ is our only source of strength and salvation. By fixing our eyes on Him, we find the encouragement and grace needed to run the race set before us, knowing He is the one who sustains us through our journey of faith.
