How do we know that Christ saves us from our sins?
Answered in 1 source
We know Christ saves us from our sins because His sacrifice effectively reconciles us and transforms us from being enemies of God to being perfect in Him.
The assurance of salvation through Christ stems from His role as the Savior who takes us from a state of alienation to one of perfection in Him. Colossians 1:21-22 reveals our initial condition as enemies due to sinful behavior and contrasts it with our final state of being presented holy and without blemish in God's sight. The atoning work of Christ is not merely a potential offering but an actual one that guarantees our salvation if we continue in faith. This underscores that salvation is ordained by God's will and secured by His actions; therefore, through faith in Christ, we can confidently affirm that Jesus indeed saves His people from their sins.
