Why is Jesus Christ considered a precious Savior?

Answered in 1 source

Jesus Christ is considered a precious Savior because He is chosen by God to provide salvation and is foundational to the believer's faith.

In 1 Peter 2:7, Jesus is depicted as precious to those who believe, highlighting His unique role as the appointed Savior. Christ's preciousness comes from His election and appointment by God to fulfill the redemptive plan for humanity. He is the chosen cornerstone of faith, as noted in Isaiah 28:16, whereby trusting in Him ensures believers will never be confounded. The relationship between believers and Christ is built upon faith, which acknowledges Him as sufficient for salvation. Additionally, His sacrificial death and the atonement of sin underscore His value to believers, who recognize Him as not only their Savior but their all in all. In Him, they find every provision for their spiritual needs, confirming His status as precious.
