Why is it important for Christians to believe in Jesus?
Answered in 1 source
Believing in Jesus is crucial for salvation and assurance in eternal life; it provides strength and comfort amid life’s trials.
Belief in Jesus is fundamental for Christians because it is through faith that we receive salvation and eternal life. Jesus emphasizes this in John 14:1, instructing His followers to believe in Him just as they believe in God. This belief not only secures our relationship with God but also provides us with the strength to face our sins and shortcomings. As stated in Ephesians 2:8-9, we are saved by grace through faith and not by our own efforts. Therefore, trusting in Jesus brings assurance of His sustaining power and promises, allowing us to endure life’s challenges without being troubled.
