Salvation is by grace alone as evidenced by scripture, particularly in Galatians, which emphasizes that it's not through the law but through God's sovereign grace.
In Galatians, the Apostle Paul emphatically asserts that salvation cannot be earned by human effort or adherence to the law, but is solely the result of God's free and sovereign grace. This is foundational to Reformed theology, which holds that all aspects of salvation are initiated and accomplished by God. Paul warns against those who promote works as a means of salvation, affirming instead that everything God requires has been provided through Christ. This doctrine liberates believers from the bondage of legalism and underscores the sufficiency of Christ's work on the cross.
