What does it mean to come to Christ by faith?

Answered in 3 sources

Coming to Christ by faith involves a mental, volitional, and affective act of turning to Him for salvation.

In the context of the sermon, coming to Christ by faith is portrayed as a comprehensive act that involves the mind, will, and heart. This theological perspective emphasizes that faith is not merely intellectual assent but also involves a conscious decision to believe and a heartfelt trust in Christ's finished work. The preacher points out that without faith, no external rituals or traditions can bring one closer to God. Faith involves understanding the truth of who Christ is and what He has accomplished, making it an act of both knowledge and commitment that leads to true spiritual life. This practice aligns with Reformed principles that highlight faith's role in justifying believers before God.
