Salvation is an act of God because it is He who chooses and calls individuals to Himself, as indicated in Romans 8.
The doctrine of salvation as an act of God aligns with Romans 8, which explains that those whom God foreknew, He predestined to be called, justified, and glorified. This chain of divine action showcases that salvation is not a result of human effort or decision but is fundamentally initiated and completed by God's sovereign will. The Lord's control over salvation is further emphasized in Acts 2 where it illustrates that those added to the church are those whom He has chosen to save, leading to their repentance and faith in Christ.
