What does it mean to look to Christ only?

Answered in 1 source

Looking to Christ only means placing complete trust in Him for salvation without relying on our works.

To look to Christ only is fundamental in Reformed theology, emphasizing that salvation is entirely dependent on Jesus Christ's work rather than any human effort. This focus is emphasized in Romans 10:4, where it states that Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to everyone who believes. Therefore, trusting in Christ alone means rejecting any notion of self-righteousness or works that contribute to salvation. It involves a heart inclined to depend solely on His righteousness, recognizing that salvation is a gift of grace through faith, not of works, lest anyone boast.
