Is “Faith in Jesus Christ” a Mistranslation?

You've heard it countless times—have faith in Jesus Christ. But what if that phrase, central to Christian theology, is based on a mistranslation? In this video, Dr. Robyn Walsh breaks down why the original Greek in Paul’s letters (especially Galatians and Romans) may actually refer to the faithfulness of Jesus, not our faith in him. This interpretation reframes Paul’s message entirely: it's about Abraham’s, Moses’s, and then Jesus’s own faithfulness to God’s plan—not our belief, but his obedience. Why do most English Bibles get this wrong? What are the implications for theology and salvation? And why are more and more scholars calling for a rethink?
