How do we know that our salvation is solely by grace?

Answered in 1 source

Scripture affirms that we are saved solely by grace through faith, emphasizing that it is the gift of God.

The biblical doctrine of grace is foundational to understanding salvation in the Reformed tradition. In Ephesians 2:8-9, we are told that we are saved by grace through faith, and this is not of ourselves; it is the gift of God. This means that our salvation is entirely God's work, executed through Christ's atonement. The sermon further reinforces this by illustrating that every element of salvation—justification, sanctification, and redemption—is carried out by Christ alone. This teaching dismantles any notion that human effort contributes to salvation, highlighting divine sovereignty and the grace of God as the only basis upon which we stand before Him.
