How do we know child-like faith is essential for salvation?

Answered in 1 source

Child-like faith is essential as it reflects total dependence on Christ for salvation.

Jesus teaches that the essence of coming to Him is similar to that of a child, who approaches their parent with complete trust and need. This dependency signifies an understanding that one's salvation is not based on personal merit or works but solely on the grace and mercy of God. The portrayal of children in the Gospels serves as a powerful example that illustrates that salvation cannot be earned or achieved; it must be received freely as a gift.
