How do we know that salvation is free and by grace?

Answered in 1 source

Salvation is free and by grace because it is a gift from God, provided through Jesus' sacrifice on the cross.

The essence of salvation being free is rooted in Romans 3:24, which says that we are 'justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus.' It underscores the fact that we contribute nothing to our salvation. God the Father sent His Son, who willingly sacrificed Himself to pay the debt for our sin. As a result, salvation is entirely based on God's mercy—He withholds what we deserve and gives us eternal life instead. This central tenet affirms that grace is unmerited favor, not dependent on our works.
