How do we know that Christ is the appointed means of salvation?

Answered in 1 source

Scripture reveals Christ as the Lamb of God, the sole means through which salvation is granted to believers.

In John 1:29, John the Baptist proclaims Jesus as 'the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world.' This declaration highlights that Christ is God's appointed means for salvation, prefigured by the sacrificial lamb of the Passover. Just as the Israelites' obedience in applying the lamb's blood saved them from destruction, faith in Christ's atoning sacrifice is essential for salvation. The uniqueness of Christ's role as the Lamb reinforces that there is no mercy or favor with God apart from faith in Him. Without this appointed way, all attempts at securing mercy fail, as God does not accept any substitutes.
