Figure 4b: A complete faith in Christ entails resting in Him as the Way,
believing in Him as the Truth, and abiding in Him as the Life. In this is
submission to Him as Lord. When these elements of faith are applied toward
the finished work of Christ then a person will enter into the fruitfulness
of redemption.
