Why is the gospel of Jesus Christ considered sufficient?

Answered in 1 source

The gospel is considered sufficient because it fully meets the requirements of God's justice and offers complete salvation to the believer.

The sufficiency of the gospel hinges on Christ's atoning sacrifice, which meets all of God's demands. Jacob's assurance, once he believed the report and saw the wagons, symbolizes how believers should find their assurance in Christ alone. Romans 5:1 teaches that being justified by faith brings peace with God, indicating that nothing more is needed to be right with Him. The gospel provides everything necessary for salvation, assuring the believer that they are fully accepted in Christ.
