How do we know that salvation is a free gift?

Answered in 3 sources

Salvation is described in the Bible as a free gift of God's grace, not based on our actions or merits.

The concept of salvation being a free gift is fundamental to the Gospel. As articulated in the sermon, God who did not spare His own Son offers all things freely to us. This is supported by passages such as Ephesians 2:8-9, which emphasize that we are saved by grace through faith, and not of ourselves; it is the gift of God. This means that our salvation is grounded in Christ's atoning work, which we receive by faith, highlighting that it is not contingent upon our works or worthiness. Therefore, all who come to faith in Christ are reconciled to God freely.
