How do we know God's power is effective in salvation?
Answered in 1 source
God's power is effective in salvation as demonstrated through the gospel, which is the power of God unto salvation to everyone who believes (Romans 1:16).
Romans 1:16 states, 'For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth.' This verse highlights that the gospel itself is the means by which God's power is realized in the hearts of those called to believe. Through the preaching of the gospel, the Holy Spirit applies the resurrection power of Christ to sinners, awakening them to faith and leading them from spiritual death to life. Therefore, it is through faith in the gospel that individuals experience the transformative power of God's grace.
