Salvation is entirely of God as it is based on His sovereign choice and accomplished through Christ's redemptive work.
The doctrine of salvation by grace alone emphasizes that it is God's will, not our own efforts, that secures our salvation. Ephesians 2:8-9 states that we are saved by grace through faith, and this faith is not of ourselves; it is the gift of God. Additionally, Romans 9:16 clarifies that it is not of him that willeth nor of him that runneth, but of God that showeth mercy. These passages reveal that from election to redemption and regeneration, every aspect of our salvation originates in God's eternal purpose and grace.
