Why is coming to Christ essential for Christians?

Answered in 1 source

Coming to Christ is essential for Christians as it is the foundation of our faith, sustaining us in our relationship with God.

Coming to Christ is not a one-time event but is essential for the Christian life. It signifies our ongoing need for His grace and mercy. As seen in Philippians 3, Paul emphasizes knowing Christ and pressing on toward the objective of eternal life. Coming to Jesus acknowledges our need for Him as the source of righteousness and healing. Without continually coming to Him, we risk relying on ourselves or falling into despair over our sinfulness. The knowledge of Christ transforms our lives, leading to spiritual growth and a deeper relationship with God, as we rely on Him for everything we need for both salvation and sustenance.
