What does it mean to believe on the name of the Son of God?

Answered in 1 source

To believe on the name of the Son of God means to trust in His identity and rely on Him alone for salvation (1 John 5:13).

Believing on the name of the Son of God encapsulates both acknowledgment of His divine identity and a profound trust in Him as your sole mediator for salvation. In 1 John 5:13, John reassures believers that they can know they have eternal life based on their faith in Christ. To truly believe means recognizing that everything God offers to us—grace, mercy, and salvation—is found in Christ alone. This belief is not mere intellectual agreement but a heart-felt reliance on who He is and what He accomplished through His death and resurrection, thereby establishing a vital relationship with Him.
