How do we know grace is truly sovereign?

Answered in 1 source

Sovereign grace is evidenced in Scripture by God's choice and action in salvation.

Sovereign grace theology asserts that God is the author of salvation, as depicted in passages such as Ephesians 1:4-5, where it is stated that He chose individuals for salvation before the foundation of the world. This choice is not based on human merit but solely on His will and purpose. The doctrine of grace includes the belief that Christ's atonement was specifically for the elect, ensuring their eventual salvation. Thus, God’s sovereignty in grace is pivotal in understanding how and why individuals come to faith — illustrating that it is God who gives hearing ears and produces repentance in the hearts of His chosen people (Philippians 1:6).
