How do we know salvation is through Jesus Christ?

The doctrine of atonement is fundamental to understanding how salvation is attained through Jesus Christ. According to biblical teaching, salvation cannot be achieved through human efforts or good works but solely through the sacrificial death and resurrection of Jesus. Spurgeon notes, 'Morality may keep you out of jail, but it takes the blood of Jesus Christ to keep you out of hell.' This indicates that it is Christ's redeeming work on the cross that provides the basis for our salvation. In Romans 10:9, we see that professing faith in the risen Lord Jesus is the means by which we are saved. Salvation through Christ is underlined throughout the entire New Testament, affirming that He is the way, the truth, and the life, and that no one comes to the Father except through Him (John 14:6).
