God's salvation is rooted in His unchanging purpose and grace, as evidenced by His intervention in our lives (Ephesians 2:4-5).
The basis for our assurance in salvation lies in God's sovereign grace. Ephesians 2:4-5 illustrates this truth, stating, 'But God, who is rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us, even when we were dead in trespasses, made us alive together with Christ.' This reinforces the understanding that salvation is not achievable by human means but is a gift from God, highlighting His initiative and mercy in providing salvation. Believers can confidently trust that God saves them because it is anchored in His character and promise.
