How do we know that we can do nothing without Christ?

Answered in 2 sources

John 15:5 states that without Christ, we can do nothing, affirming our dependency on Him for every aspect of life.

The foundational truth of our dependence on Christ is articulated in John 15:5, where Jesus declares, 'without me, you can do nothing.' This underscores the reality that all our efforts, apart from His grace and strength, are in vain. The Apostle Paul amplifies this in Philippians 4:13, asserting that he can do all things through Christ who strengthens him. This reliance is crucial for acknowledging our frailty and embracing God’s grace in our lives. As we reflect on our dependence, we come to understand that any good work is worked in us or through us by His divine influence.
