How do we know that God's sovereign grace elects people for salvation?

Answered in 1 source

Scripture affirms that God's sovereign grace elects individuals to salvation, particularly illustrated in the ministry of Paul.

God's sovereign grace is a crucial doctrine that asserts His authority in the election of individuals for salvation, as outlined in Ephesians 1:4-5. The ministry of Paul in Corinth exemplifies this truth. When he was promised by God that He had 'much people in this city' (Acts 18:10), it was an assurance of God’s eternal plan to save a specific group of individuals. The act of calling the elect is performed through the faithful preaching of the gospel, resulting in their belief and baptism as described in Acts 18:8. This pattern affirms that salvation is initiated and completed by God’s sovereign will.
