How do we know God's choice for salvation is true?
Answered in 2 sources
God's sovereign choice in salvation is affirmed in Ephesians 1 and 2 Thessalonians 2, where we learn He chose a people from eternity.
The doctrine of God's sovereign choice for salvation is a cornerstone of Reformed theology. Scriptures like Ephesians 1:4-5 articulate that God chose us in Christ before the foundation of the world to be adopted as His children. This selection is not based on foreseen merit but solely on His grace and purpose. In 2 Thessalonians 2:13, the Apostle Paul reiterates that God has chosen us for salvation through sanctification by the Spirit and belief in the truth, confirming that His choice is rooted in His eternal plan and divine will rather than human effort or decision.
