We know Jesus is our Savior through His obedience unto death on the cross and the assurance of scripture regarding His atoning work.
The certainty of Jesus as our Savior is grounded in His sacrificial obedience demonstrated on the cross. Paul in Philippians 2:5-8 highlights that Jesus, though equal with God, humbled Himself and became obedient to the point of death. This obedience was not merely an act of submission but was essential for our salvation. Furthermore, the Scriptures provide clear witness to His victory over sin and death, assuring believers of their redemption. The entirety of the gospel centers on Christ's completed work through the cross, which becomes the foundation of our faith and assurance of salvation.
