How does Scripture convey the concept of sovereign grace?

Answered in 1 source

Scripture conveys sovereign grace by teaching that salvation is an act of God's will, not based on human decision or merit.

Sovereign grace is conveyed throughout Scripture by asserting that God is the sole initiator of salvation. Passages like John 1:13 emphasize that salvation is determined by God's will, stating that those born of God are not born of the will of man. Additionally, Ephesians 1:4-5 showcases God's chose individuals for salvation before the foundation of the world, highlighting His sovereign authority in the process of salvation and dispelling the notion of free will decisionism prevalent in some circles.
