How do we know salvation by faith is true?

Answered in 11 sources

Salvation by faith is affirmed in the New Testament, particularly in Paul's letters, where righteousness is imputed to believers through faith apart from works of the law.

The truth of salvation by faith is established through several key passages in the New Testament. For example, in Romans 4:3, Paul clarifies that Abraham was counted as righteous because of his faith prior to his circumcision, showing that righteousness is based on faith rather than adherence to the law. This idea is reinforced throughout the book of Galatians, where Paul argues against those who attempt to add works to salvation. The doctrine emphasizes that justification comes solely through faith in Christ, not through our works or observances, fulfilling the promise that all who believe are considered Abraham’s children, inheriting the same righteousness.
