How do we know that Christ's death is sufficient for salvation?

Answered in 3 sources

The sufficiency of Christ's death is affirmed throughout Scripture, particularly in 1 Corinthians 15, where it is stated that He died for our sins according to the Scriptures.

The apostle Paul emphasizes the centrality of Christ's death in the gospel he preached, declaring that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures. This sacrificial act fulfilled the Old Testament prophecies and God's plan for redemption. By His death, Christ bore the weight of sin and absorbed God's wrath, providing atonement for His people. The assurance of salvation is grounded not in our works but in the finished work of Christ. Furthermore, His resurrection serves as a confirmation of the acceptance of His sacrifice, validating that through Him, justification and eternal life are granted to all who believe.
