The Bible teaches that salvation is rooted in the truth of God's Word and is fulfilled in Jesus Christ.
The Scriptures affirm that God's salvation is based on truth, as highlighted in Psalm 69:13, where the psalmist prays, 'Hear me in the truth of thy salvation.' This truth revolves around the identity and work of Jesus Christ, who is described in John 14:6 as 'the way, the truth, and the life.' The importance of this truth is foundational for understanding how God redeems His people and the character of His justice and mercy. God cannot lie, and His promises are always fulfilled. Salvation, therefore, is not based on human effort but wholly on God's truth and the finished work of Christ.
