How do we know that we do not initiate our own salvation?

Answered in 1 source

We know we do not initiate our own salvation because Philippians 1:6 states God begins the work in us.

In Philippians 1:6, the Apostle Paul declares, 'He who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.' This verse reinforces the truth that our role in salvation is passive; God initiates and carries out the process. Many people mistakenly believe they must take the first step, but the Scriptures affirm that it is God who calls us, awakens us, and brings us to faith.
