How do we know that salvation is entirely from God?

Answered in 3 sources

Scripture asserts that salvation comes from God alone, as we are saved by grace through faith, which is a gift, not from ourselves (Ephesians 2:8-9).

The reality of salvation being from God is intricately tied to the concept of grace. As stated in Ephesians 2:8-9, we are saved by grace through faith, and this is not of ourselves; it is the gift of God. If salvation were based on our works, we would have reason to boast. However, salvation is entirely by God's sovereign will and purpose, emphasizing that He alone is the author and finisher of our faith. This framework leads us to glory in the Lord for our redemption, knowing that we cannot contribute to our own salvation.
