How do we know that eternal redemption is only through Christ?

Answered in 1 source

Eternal redemption is secured only through Christ's sacrifice, as He entered the holy place by His own blood.

The doctrine of eternal redemption through Christ is foundational in Reformed theology. In Hebrews 9:12, we learn that Christ entered the holy place once for all, having obtained eternal redemption for us. His sacrifice was not merely a symbol, but a complete and perfect offering that satisfied divine justice. The veil of the temple being torn at His death (Matthew 27:51) illustrates that access to God is granted through Him alone. This means that outside of Christ, sinners remain in their condemnation. Only through faith in Him, acknowledged in Acts 4:12, can anyone be saved. Therefore, eternal redemption is a gift that Christ accomplished on behalf of His people and is ultimately found only in Him.
