How do we know that salvation is God's work alone?

Answered in 1 source

Salvation is God's work alone because Ephesians 2 teaches that we are dead in sins and saved by grace through faith, which is a gift from God.

Ephesians 2:8-9 makes it clear that salvation is by grace through faith, not of ourselves, indicating that faith itself is a gift from God. This underscores the Reformed principle of total depravity, teaching that humanity is spiritually dead and incapable of contributing to their salvation. As stated in Romans, God’s choice of who to save is unconditional and not based on human effort, reflecting His sovereign grace.
