How do we know the doctrine of salvation by grace is true?
Answered in 6 sources
Salvation by grace is rooted in Scripture, which consistently teaches that righteousness is imputed to believers through faith in Jesus.
The doctrine of salvation by grace is a foundational aspect of Reformed theology, grounded in passages such as Ephesians 2:8-9, which states that we are saved by grace through faith, and not of ourselves; it is the gift of God. This truth highlights that salvation is solely based on God’s mercy and not on human effort. Romans 3:21-22 further affirms that the righteousness of God comes through faith in Jesus Christ to all who believe. Thus, we can be assured of this doctrine's truth through Scripture's consistent proclamation of God's grace in salvation.
