What does it mean to "trust in Jesus Christ for salvation?" I mean, I have used the phrase over and over, and I have heard it repeated over and over, but if I was asked to explain it, I don't know if I could? Does trusting Jesus mean that you rely on His sacrifice as sufficient? That you rely on His righteousness rather than your own? That you rely on Him to make intercession for you?
