How do we know that salvation comes by grace alone?

Answered in 2 sources

Salvation is based on God's grace alone, as seen in passages like Ephesians 2:8-9 which state that we are saved by grace through faith, not by our works.

The doctrine of salvation by grace alone is central to Reformed theology and is supported by numerous scriptures. Ephesians 2:8-9 clearly states that 'For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.' This underscores that our salvation is not achieved through our efforts or adherence to the law, but is a divine gift from God. Romans 3:24 also declares that we are justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus. Thus, grace is not merely an opportunity but the active work of God in delivering His people from sin.
