How do we know that God's sovereignty applies to salvation?

Answered in 2 sources

God's sovereignty in salvation is confirmed through scripture, illustrating that He actively seeks and saves His chosen people.

The sovereignty of God in salvation is a central tenet of Reformed theology, evidenced by passages such as Ephesians 1:11, which confirms that God works all things according to the counsel of His will. Scripture consistently shows that God takes the initiative in seeking the lost, much like King David sought Mephibosheth not for his merit but out of a covenant promise. God’s sovereignty reassures us that all whom He has predestined will indeed come to Him, ensuring that reconciliation is fully His doing without reliance on human effort.
