How can someone be saved according to Scripture?

Answered in 1 source

Salvation comes through faith in Christ alone, acknowledging His work on the cross.

According to Scripture, salvation is a gift of grace received through faith in Jesus Christ. Ephesians 2:8-9 clearly states that it is by grace we are saved through faith, and this is not of ourselves; it is the gift of God. This means that human efforts or works cannot earn salvation. Instead, the believer must recognize the completed work of Christ, who died to atone for sin and rose again, affirming His power over death (Romans 10:9). Furthermore, confession and belief in Jesus as Lord and Savior leads to justification and reconciliation with God, as emphasized in Romans 5:1. Therefore, true salvation encapsulates recognizing Christ's sufficiency in paying the penalty for our sins and trusting in Him wholeheartedly.
