Why is looking to Christ essential for overcoming sin?

Answered in 1 source

Looking to Christ is crucial for overcoming sin as He provides the faith and strength we need.

The call to 'look unto Jesus' in Hebrews 12:2 reveals that our focus must remain on Christ to lay aside the weights and sins that beset us. By looking to Him, we receive the faith necessary to endure life's challenges. This perspective reinforces that we do not rely on our strength or understanding, but rather on the finished work of Christ and His continuous intercession. This act of looking is a connection to faith, which empowers us to combat sin effectively.
