How can one be saved according to Reformed theology?

Answered in 1 source

Salvation in Reformed theology is by grace through faith in Jesus Christ, not by works (Ephesians 2:8-9).

Reformed theology emphasizes that salvation is a work of God's grace, not of human merit. This is articulated in Ephesians 2:8-9, stating that it is by grace we are saved through faith, and this not of ourselves; it is the gift of God. This belief underscores that human beings are unable to earn their way to salvation or contribute to their righteous standing before God. Rather, Jesus Christ's death and resurrection provide the basis for justification. The sinner must repent from their sins and believe in Christ, who fulfills the law and takes the punishment for sin. This glorious exchange allows believers to stand before God justified, clothed in the righteousness of Christ.
