How do we know salvation is God's choice?

Answered in 1 source

Salvation is not based on human decision but is according to God's sovereign will and purpose.

Salvation, from a sovereign grace perspective, is a divine act where God saves His chosen people based solely on His will, not theirs. This doctrine asserts that we do not seek God on our own; instead, it is God who initiates salvation, bringing His chosen ones to faith as stated in Romans 8:30, where it outlines that those He predestined, He also called and justified. The Apostle Paul exemplifies this understanding, declaring that God revealed His Son in him 'when it pleased God.' Thus, we affirm that salvation rests in God's sovereign choice and grace, ensuring that the multitudes whom He elects will indeed be saved.
