We know salvation is by grace alone as the Bible clearly states that all humans fall short of God's glory, and justification is solely through faith in Christ (Romans 3:24).
The certainty of salvation by grace alone is rooted in the biblical doctrine that all humanity is fallen and incapable of achieving righteous standing before God on their own. As Romans 3:23 declares, 'For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God,' it supports the notion that our salvation cannot be based on works. Furthermore, Romans 3:24 articulates that we are justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus. Thus, all elements of our salvation—election, calling, and justification—are completely of God's grace and not our own efforts or righteousness.
