How does God save sinners according to Scripture?

Answered in 2 sources

God saves sinners through the preaching of the gospel, which is the primary means of conveying His grace and truth, as outlined in Romans 10.

Scripture clearly articulates that the means by which God saves sinners is through the message of the gospel, which must be proclaimed by preachers. Romans 10 teaches that hearing the gospel is essential before one can believe, indicating divine ordination in the act of preaching. The story of Philip and the eunuch in Acts 8 highlights this process, wherein the eunuch needed a preacher to understand the truths of salvation. Furthermore, the clarity of the gospel message is essential, as it declares what God has accomplished through Christ rather than presenting a mere offer of salvation or a human-centered approach. The gospel encapsulates God's sovereign will in saving His people, reinforcing that all aspects of salvation are a product of divine grace, as seen in the preaching and belief.
