How do we know that Christ is the appointed way to salvation?

Answered in 1 source

Christ's appointment as the way to salvation is rooted in God's sovereign plan outlined in Scripture.

The appointment of Christ as the way to salvation is revealed throughout the Bible, beginning in the eternal council before the foundation of the world. God's sovereign grace decreed that Jesus would fulfill this mediatorial office, as seen in various prophetic anticipations and the ultimate fulfillment in the New Testament. For example, the Old Testament hints at this through the types and shadows that foreshadow Christ's redemptive work, and in John 17:4, Jesus affirms His mission by declaring, 'I have finished the work which You gave Me to do.' Thus, the assurance of Christ as the appointed way stems from God's comprehensive plan of salvation.
