Faith In Jesus

One of the important principals of Christianity is to have faith in God.Jesus said to have faith in God (Mark 11:22).Apostle Paul has described many times in new testament to have faith in Jesus.But who is Jesus Christ and what does it mean to have faith in Jesus???Today let me discuss something about the faith in Jesus.

What is faith? True faith must be focused in Jesus Christ, which is the first principle of the gospel.For a person to be saved they must have faith in Jesus Christ, the Son of God.Jesus has given us a promise that,we can become the children of God.It is only through faith in Christ that we can become the children of God.Because of our sinful acts we are separated from God. The Bible tells us that we have all sinned and fallen short of the glory of God.“yet we know that a person is not justified by works of the law but through faith in Jesus Christ, so we also have believed in Christ Jesus, in order to be justified by faith in Christ and not by works of the law, because by works of the law no one will be justified”.(Gal.2:16). The gift of eternal salvation with God the Father can only be received by grace through faith in Jesus Christ – not by any type of works that we could do – no matter how holy and pure our works are.Whatever good works we are doing,it will not help us to reach heaven.Jesus paid for our sins because we cannot pay for our own sins. The ticket into Heaven has been paid for—all you have to do is accept the free gift of eternal life through Jesus Christ.You just need to believe in Jesus,the son of God and his resurrection.
We must have faith in Jesus Christ. It is only through Him that we can have salvation. It is only through His name that we can be saved (Acts 4:12). It is only through Him that we will be resurrected to eternal life (Luke 20:36, John 6:44).
Jesus is the author and finisher of our faith (Hebrews 12:2).
