How does God's grace save us?

Sovereign grace is the unmerited favor of God extended to sinners for their salvation. According to Ephesians 2:8-9, it is not by works but by grace that we are saved through faith. This grace is made manifest in the calling of sinners to life, as seen in the story of Lazarus, where Christ called him out of death (John 11:43). Faith itself is also a gift from God, confirming that salvation is wholly a work of His grace. This grace is applied to believers through the atoning sacrifice of Christ, who secured their redemption by bearing their sins in His body on the cross (1 Peter 2:24).
