How do we know that salvation by grace is true?

Answered in 9 sources

Salvation by grace is affirmed throughout Scripture, emphasizing that it is the unmerited favor of God that saves, not human efforts.

The doctrine of salvation by grace emphasizes that believers are saved solely through God's unmerited favor, as articulated in Ephesians 2:8-9, which states that it is by grace we are saved, not by works. This truth is foundational in historic Reformed theology, which emphasizes God’s sovereignty in salvation. Those who would teach salvation through works are misrepresenting the gospel, as Paul warns that the law cannot justify us; rather, it is faith in Christ alone that secures salvation. Furthermore, through the lens of Scripture, we see that God's grace is both irresistible and critical for our redemption, as it is solely by His will that any are saved.
