Why should Christians trust in Christ rather than their own works?

Answered in 1 source

Christians should trust in Christ because He alone provides the righteousness needed for salvation, unlike the flawed works of the flesh.

The central message of the sermon underscores the importance of relying exclusively on Christ for salvation rather than one's own efforts. Our works, no matter how righteous they appear, are ultimately insufficient and cannot bring about true salvation or peace with God. Isaiah's depiction of nations being stripped of their confidence highlights the need for grace, emphasizing that salvation is a gift from God through Jesus Christ. By trusting in Christ, believers find not only forgiveness and mercy but also the hope and assurance that comes from His righteousness, which is received by faith, not by works.
