How do we know the doctrine of strife for salvation is true?

Answered in 1 source

The doctrine emphasizes that we must strive to enter through the narrow gate, as taught by Christ in Luke 13:24.

The doctrine of striving for salvation is rooted in Jesus' exhortation found in Luke 13:24, where He instructs, 'Strive to enter in at the strait gate.' This phrase indicates that there is an effort required on the part of the believer to engage actively in their spiritual journey. The command underscores personal responsibility in seeking salvation, which includes means of grace such as prayer, reading Scripture, and engaging in community worship. Ultimately, it reflects the necessity of diligent pursuit in a relationship with Christ coupled with reliance on His grace to enable such striving.
