What does the Bible say about faith and unworthiness?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible teaches that true faith acknowledges our unworthiness before God.

Faith in Christ is fundamentally tied to recognizing one's own unworthiness. In Luke 7, the centurion demonstrated great faith by acknowledging that he was not worthy for the Lord to enter under his roof. This humility reflects a sincere understanding of God's holiness and our sinfulness. The unworthy sinner pleads for mercy, understanding that salvation is not based on merit but solely on God's sovereign grace and His sovereign choice to save whom He wills.
