How do we know that God's grace is sufficient for sanctification?

Answered in 1 source

God's grace is sufficient for sanctification because our holiness and acceptance are completed in Christ, independent of our efforts.

The assurance of God's grace being sufficient for our sanctification lies in the completed work of Christ at Calvary. Our standing before God is based on Christ’s perfect obedience, which means that our sanctification is not reliant on our performance. This perspective liberates believers from a performance-based faith, affirming that our holiness is complete in Him. As believers, we are not measured by a checklist of good works; instead, we are called to rest in the sufficiency of Christ’s sacrifice. The Holy Spirit then empowers our spiritual growth, enabling us to bear fruit in our lives without the burden of legalism.
