How do we know that the gospel of sovereign grace is true?

Answered in 1 source

The gospel of sovereign grace aligns with Scripture, affirming that salvation is by grace alone through faith in Christ alone.

The veracity of the gospel of sovereign grace is rooted in its biblical foundation, which teaches that salvation is entirely the work of God and not dependent on human effort. Scripture clarifies that God's elect are chosen before the foundation of the world (Ephesians 1:4-5) and that Christ's atoning sacrifice is sufficient for all their sins. The gospel declares that we are saved by grace through faith, highlighting that it is not our works that merit salvation, but Christ's righteousness. Moreover, the theology of sovereign grace operates on the principle of total depravity, meaning every person, by nature, is dead in sin and incapable of seeking God without divine intervention. This intervention is a direct demonstration of God's mercy and power, compelling believers to trust wholly in Christ and His finished work, thus affirming the truth of the gospel.
