Why is faith in the Son of God essential for Christians?

Answered in 1 source

Faith in the Son of God is essential as it is the means through which Christians receive life and salvation.

Faith in the Son of God is the cornerstone of a Christian's relationship and identity. As expressed in Galatians 2:20, Christians live by 'the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.' This faith is not just belief but encompasses trust in Jesus's completed work of salvation, acknowledging that He is the source of all righteousness and life. Without this faith, believers cannot access the grace that empowers them to live a life that pleases God. Their justification, sanctification, and ultimate glorification are all rooted in their faith in Christ. By relying on His faithfulness, Christians are assured of their standing before God and the transformative power that allows them to manifest the fruit of the Spirit in their lives.
