How does one become accepted by God?

Answered in 1 source

One becomes accepted by God through grace alone, as described in Ephesians 1:6.

Acceptance before God is not based on human merit but solely through His grace. Ephesians 1:6 states, 'To the praise of the glory of his grace, wherein he hath made us accepted in the beloved.' This reminds believers that it is through God's sovereign choice and grace that they are deemed acceptable rather than by their works or religious activity. This perspective affirms historical Reformed theology that centers on grace as the sole basis for acceptance, emphasizing God’s initiative in salvation rather than human action.
