How do we know that faith is rooted in Jesus Christ?

Answered in 1 source

Faith is rooted in Jesus Christ as the only foundation for salvation, confirmed through Scripture (1 Peter 2:6).

The foundation of Christian faith is firmly established in the person and work of Jesus Christ, as indicated in 1 Peter 2:6 where it states, 'he that believeth on him shall not be confounded.' This underscores that all spiritual life and faith are sourced in Christ. Moreover, Jesus’ role as the cornerstone signifies not only His stability but also His tested and proven strength to support believers amidst trials. The Scriptures further affirm this in other passages, such as Matthew 16:18, where Jesus declares, 'Upon this rock I will build my church.' Thus, the biblical narrative supports that true faith must find its grounding in the truths of Christ, who is the living stone.
