The Bible teaches that believers are completely dependent on the Lord Jesus Christ for their salvation and all aspects of life.
Scripture emphasizes our total dependency on God, particularly in Hebrews 13:5-6, where it states that we should be content because the Lord promises never to leave us or forsake us. Complete dependency on Christ means recognizing that He is our wisdom, righteousness, sanctification, and redemption, which are all provided by His grace and finished work. Recognizing our need for a Savior is essential; it reveals that without Him, we are powerless to save ourselves.
