How do we know grace alone is true in salvation?

Answered in 2 sources

Grace alone is affirmed in scripture, emphasizing that salvation is a gift from God and not based on human works.

The principle of grace alone in salvation is firmly established in scripture. It emphasizes that salvation is not something we can earn or achieve through our works. In Galatians 2:16, it explicitly states, 'A person is not justified by works of the law but through faith in Jesus Christ.' This validates that our justification and acceptance before God come solely from His grace, a consistent theme throughout the New Testament. This divine grace is inherently tied to God's mercy and love, which He lavishes on the undeserving, making it clear that it's not reliant on human effort.
