How do we know that salvation is an eternal act?

Answered in 1 source

Salvation is an eternal act as it was accomplished before the foundation of the world, and God has always looked to Christ for our salvation, not our own efforts.

The sermon's assertion that salvation is an eternal act is well-founded in Scripture, specifically Ephesians 1:4-5, which explains that God chose us in Christ before the foundation of the world. This predestination signifies that our salvation has been secured from eternity past. In Revelation 13:8, the names of God's elect are said to be written in the Lamb's Book of Life from before the world began. This illustrates the certainty and permanence of our salvation, since it does not depend on our actions or decisions but solely on God's sovereign grace and purpose. Thus, God has not looked to man's efforts but to Christ's redemptive work for the salvation of His people.
