How is glory given to God in salvation?

Answered in 1 source

All glory in salvation belongs to God as it is His sovereign act alone that redeems.

The theology of sovereign grace emphasizes that salvation, from beginning to end, is a work of God alone. Scripture repeatedly points to the fact that it is God who initiates, pursues, and accomplishes salvation for His people. For example, Psalm 21:5 declares, 'His glory is great in salvation,' elucidating that God alone should receive the honor for the redemptive process. In Romans 11:36, it is written, 'For of Him, and through Him, and to Him are all things: to whom be glory forever.' This highlights that every aspect of our salvation is designed to glorify God’s grace and power, underscoring the belief that no human effort contributes to reconciliation with God — it is all for His glory.
