How to trust in Christ for salvation?

The Bible does not explain how to trust Christ because trusting in Christ for salvation spontaneously follows by "spiritual reflex" (as I call it) the moment a sinner sees his helplessness in saving himself and realizes the sufficiency of Christ's work on the cross for one's salvation. The man who sees that he is in a hopeless building, engulfed and swallowed whole by a raging fire, would just instinctively jump into a sure and stable safety net waiting for him below, knowing full well that it alone could save him. He doesn't ask "how do I jump in there?" No, he just does it. Pushed by his own necessity. He is more concerned about getting himself deposited into the net than anything else in the world.
