What does the Bible say about trusting in man for salvation?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible warns against trusting in man, as salvation comes through the grace of God alone.

In Jeremiah 17:5-6, the Lord says, 'Cursed be the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm.' This passage indicates that placing our trust in human effort or wisdom for salvation will lead to spiritual desolation. Instead, true salvation is rooted in God's sovereign grace and the righteousness that comes through Jesus Christ, our Savior. The Bible consistently teaches that we should trust God's provision for salvation rather than our own abilities or efforts.
