What does it mean to live by faith according to the gospel?

Answered in 1 source

Living by faith means placing complete trust in Christ for righteousness and salvation, as taught in Romans 1:17.

To live by faith, as articulated in Romans 1:17, means to rely wholly on Christ for both righteousness and salvation. This concept underscores the necessity of faith as the means through which believers receive God's grace. It reflects an understanding that one's own works cannot attain righteousness; rather, it is through belief in Christ's finished work that one is justified. Living by faith also involves a continual dependence on God’s grace in daily life, recognizing that faith is not only the entry point into the Christian life but the sustaining force throughout it. Believers are called to cultivate this faith, growing in their understanding and trust in God's promises.
