How do we know the doctrine of salvation by faith is true?

Answered in 9 sources

We know the doctrine of salvation by faith is true through the witness of Scripture, the examples of faith in the Old Testament, and our personal experience of God's grace.

The doctrine of salvation by faith is affirmed throughout Scripture, where the lives of individuals like Rahab and Abraham illustrate how God redeems sinners through their faith. Rahab's story in Hebrews 11 exemplifies how she was saved not because of her works, but because she believed the promise of God concerning Israel's conquest. This exemplifies the gospel, where faith alone, absent any works, leads to salvation. Furthermore, God's promises to His elect in both the Old and New Testaments assure us that faith in Christ is the sole means of redemption. Real-life testimonies of believers who have experienced transformation and grace through faith in Christ further authenticate this doctrine as true.
