How can we be saved according to sovereign grace theology?

Answered in 1 source

We are saved by grace through faith in Jesus Christ, not by our own works or efforts.

Sovereign grace theology emphasizes that salvation is entirely the work of God. According to Ephesians 2:8-9, we are saved by grace through faith, and this is not of ourselves; it is the gift of God. This teaches that no amount of human effort or works can achieve salvation. Instead, it is God's sovereign choice to extend grace to His elect. The Holy Spirit works in the hearts of sinners to grant them faith and repentance, enabling them to trust in Christ alone for their salvation. This perspective underscores our complete dependence on God’s mercy, eliminating any boasting or reliance on personal merit.
