Jesus is confirmed as our Savior through His incarnation, fulfilling the prophecies and offering redemption through His sacrifice.
The assurance that Jesus is our Savior is grounded in the clear testimony of scripture and His fulfillment of prophetic declarations. As Zacharias prophesies in Luke 1:68-69, God has visited and redeemed His people through Christ. The incarnation of Jesus—God manifested in the flesh (1 Timothy 3:16)—is essential in understanding His role as Redeemer. Further, Hebrews 9:12 assures us that He entered once into the holy place, having obtained eternal redemption for us, which emphasizes the completeness and efficacy of His salvific work on the cross.
