Christ is our Savior as He fulfilled the law perfectly and sacrificed Himself, providing redemption for His people, as prophesied in Zechariah 9:9-11.
Our assurance of Christ as our Savior comes from multiple scriptural testimonies of His redemptive work. In Zechariah 9:9-11, we see the prophetic declaration of the Messiah who brings salvation. As the 'Just One,' He embodies both perfect righteousness and the unique ability to save sinners. This is corroborated by the New Testament, particularly in Titus 3:4-7, which states God saved us not by our works, but according to His mercy through the washing of regeneration. Additionally, through His sacrificial death, Jesus reconciled God's people to Himself, demonstrating that He is indeed the Savior promised in the scriptures. His atoning work assures our faith in Him.
