What does it mean to look to Christ?

Answered in 3 sources

Looking to Christ means turning our attention to Him in faith, trusting in His sacrifice and provision for our salvation.

To look to Christ is an act of faith that signifies reliance on His finished work for our peace and redemption. As evidenced in the sermon, the act of looking to the brazen serpent was not merely physical but encompassed belief in God's promise to save. This type of faith requires an acknowledgment of our dire condition due to sin and an acceptance of Christ as the sole remedy. As recorded in the Bible, true faith implies that we see Christ — not just with physical eyes, but internally, believing that His sacrifice cleanses us from all unrighteousness (1 John 1:9). When we genuinely look to Christ, we find rest, healing, and salvation.
