The Bible teaches that justification comes solely through faith in Jesus Christ, who was delivered for our offenses and raised for our justification (Romans 4:25).
Justification by faith is a central theme in the New Testament, particularly in the writings of the Apostle Paul. Romans 4:24-25 clearly states that Christ was delivered for our offenses and raised again for our justification. This underscores that faith, not works, is the means through which we are justified before God. Abraham serves as an example of faith's role, as he believed God and it was accounted to him as righteousness (Genesis 15:6, Romans 4:3). Thus, those who believe on Christ, acknowledging Him as the basis for their righteousness, are justified.
