How do we attain the blessed state of peace with God?
Answered in 1 source
We attain peace with God through faith in Jesus Christ.
Attaining peace with God involves believing in Jesus as your Lord and Savior, as emphasized in Hebrews 4:11 and John 6:29. The scriptures consistently exhort us to rely on Christ alone for our acceptance with God. This faith is not simply acknowledgment but an active trust that results in a state of blessedness, as illustrated in Psalm 32:1-2 where David expresses the joy of forgiven sin and freedom from guilt. This peace is experienced now and culminates in eternal life, signifying that those who are in Christ have found true rest for their souls. The continual act of believing in Christ, who took upon Himself our sin, allows us to experience this peace daily.
