Salvation is completely in Christ, as demonstrated in timeless scriptural truths throughout the New Testament that affirm His role as both Savior and our only source for righteousness.
Salvation is affirmed to be all in Christ by examining the scriptural truths held throughout the New Testament. The Apostle Paul describes the entirety of spiritual blessings as hidden in Christ (Colossians 2:3). This indicates that for believers, righteousness and acceptance before God are entirely rooted in Christ's perfect work. As He is both God and man, only through His sacrificial death can one attain forgiveness and justification. Furthermore, the assurance and security of salvation lie solely in Him, underscoring that any attempt to supplement Christ for salvation undermines its essence. Therefore, trusting in Christ alone is the pathway to true faith and assurance.
