How does one come to trust in Christ?

Coming to trust in Christ involves recognizing our need for salvation and responding to the truth of the gospel. As outlined in Matthew 12:21, the call to the Gentiles to trust in Christ signifies God's intent to extend His grace to all people. The Holy Spirit plays a fundamental role in this process, as He reveals Christ to us, opens our hearts to His truth, and grants us faith to believe (1 Corinthians 2:14). This gift of faith is not a work we achieve ourselves but a divine enablement that leads us to trust in Christ’s finished work on the cross.
