How do we know faith is the evidence of salvation?

Answered in 3 sources

We know faith is the evidence of salvation because scripture asserts that belief in Jesus Christ is the key to being justified and saved.

Faith in Jesus Christ is recognized as the sole evidence of salvation, based on multiple scriptural references. John 3:16 affirms that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have everlasting life. This verse highlights the centrality of faith in obtaining salvation. Furthermore, in Ephesians 2:8-9, it is stated that we are saved by grace through faith, not of ourselves; it is a gift of God. This indicates that our trust in Christ's finished work is the definitive marker of our salvation, as it aligns with God's plan of grace.
