How do we know that God shows mercy to whom He wills?

Answered in 2 sources

Scripture affirms that God has concluded all under sin so that He might have mercy upon whom He chooses.

In Romans 11:30-32, Paul discusses how both Jews and Gentiles were concluded in unbelief, highlighting that none are righteous by nature. This serves to illustrate that God’s mercy is not based on human merit but is wholly sovereign. The scripture clearly states that He shows mercy to whom He wills, which reinforces the doctrine that God's grace is unearned and given freely according to His sovereign purpose. This teaching encourages believers to recognize their dependence on God’s mercy rather than their own righteousness.
