How do we know Jesus is able to save us?

Answered in 4 sources

Jesus is able to save us because He is both fully God and fully man, uniquely qualified to mediate between God and humanity.

The ability of Jesus to save lies in His dual nature as both God and man. As the Son of God, He comes with divine authority and power, while His humanity allows Him to bear the penalty for sin on behalf of His people. Romans 1:18-20 indicates that God's righteousness requires justice, which is satisfied only through Christ's sacrifice. When He died on the cross, He bore our sins and was resurrected, demonstrating His victory over death. This unique qualification assures us that through faith in Him, we receive forgiveness and new life, as He alone is capable of reconciling us to God.
