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

Answered in 7 sources

The Scriptures affirm that Jesus is the sole mediator between God and man, evidenced by His fulfillment of Old Testament prophecies (Acts 4:12).

The exclusivity of Christ as the means of salvation is a central tenet of Christian faith supported by Scripture. Acts 4:12 states, 'There is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.' This powerful declaration highlights that salvation is not found in any other person or religious system but solely through Jesus Christ. Additionally, Jesus Himself made this claim in John 14:6 when He declared, 'I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.' The unfolding of salvation history throughout the Old Testament points toward the necessity of Jesus as the Messiah, who came to fulfill the law and prophecies. His substitutionary atonement on the cross, where He bore the wrath of God for sinners, is the definitive work that provides believers—chosen in Him before the foundation of the world (Ephesians 1:4)—with assurance of eternal life. Thus, biblical teaching unequivocally asserts that Christ is the only path to reconciliation with God.
