How do we know that the faith is once delivered to the saints?

Answered in 1 source

The faith is described as once delivered to the saints, indicating a completed and unchangeable message from God.

The phrase 'once delivered to the saints' signifies that the body of truth concerning salvation and God’s revelation is final and complete. Jude emphasizes that this truth has been entrusted to believers, urging them to hold onto it with diligence. This delivery emphasizes the unalterable nature of the gospel, as indicated in Revelation 22:18-19, which warns against adding to or taking away from God's Word. The coherence of Scripture throughout the ages—despite being penned by various authors—further affirms the singularity and integrity of the faith. As believers, we can trust that the essentials of our faith are rooted in God's sovereign plan, culminating in the work of Christ.
