How do we know salvation is entirely the work of God?

Answered in 1 source

Salvation is fully God's work, as Romans 9:16 states, 'It is not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth, but of God that showeth mercy.'

According to Scripture, salvation originates solely from God's sovereign will. Romans 9:16 affirms, 'So then it is not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth, but of God that showeth mercy.' This indicates that human efforts or decisions play no role in salvation, as none can seek God without divine initiative. The process of coming to faith itself is a result of God's drawing, making it evident that the lost sinner is utterly dependent on God's sovereign grace for salvation.
