How do we know that Jesus is the author and finisher of our faith?
Answered in 2 sources
Scriptures affirm that Jesus is the source and perfecter of our faith, having completed the work of salvation through His death and resurrection.
In Hebrews 12:2, it states that Jesus is both the author and finisher of our faith, indicating that He initiates our faith and sees it to completion. This means that our salvation is entirely founded on what Christ has accomplished; He endured the cross and the shame, providing a completed work that secures our standing before God. As believers, our faith is not based on our efforts but rather on the finished work of Christ. Trusting in Him ensures that we are sustained in our spiritual race, reflecting the reality that our righteousness comes through Him.
