How do we know that justification is through faith?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible clearly states that justification is by faith and not by works, as seen in Galatians 2:16.

Galatians 2:16 teaches that a person is justified not by the works of the law, but through faith in Jesus Christ. This doctrine emphasizes that our acceptance before God does not hinge on our own efforts but relies solely on believing in Christ's redemptive work. By faith, we receive the righteousness which God has provided through His Son, thus assuring us of our standing before Him, paralleling the narrative where Jacob receives blessings through means outside of his own worthiness.
