The Bible teaches that salvation comes through faith in Jesus Christ: 'Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved.'
According to Scripture, specifically in Acts 16:31, salvation is attained through belief in the Lord Jesus Christ. This is the core of the Gospel message, emphasizing that faith is not merely an intellectual assent but a deep trust in Christ's redemptive work. The apostle Paul proclaimed this truth to the jailer who, sensing his perilous state, urgently asked, 'What must I do to be saved?' The answer was straightforward: to place one's faith in Jesus. This teaching underscores the Reformed view that salvation is a gift from God, granted to those who believe, affirming that our only hope lies in Christ's finished work on the cross.
