Trusting Christ for our Salvation

I recently read this quote that reinforced the idea that we must trust in Christ and in Him alone for our salvation.  We can not afford to allow any substitutes or additions to be placed in our lives through the spirit of religion and religious activity.  We must look to Christ with genuine faith in our hearts and understand that He is sole provider for our deliverance from sin and the effects of sin in our lives.  

The real danger of legalism is that it produces a sense of
attainment that short-circuits our call to live the life of Yes
through Christ. Self-achievement brings a false sense of
assurance that somehow we can live a pure life in our own
ability. This attitude ultimately leads us to cut ourselves off
from the heart of God and, in turn, to deny our true identity in
Christ.
      -- David Edwards
Let us continue to pursue the Heart of God in our journey through life.
