How is God's sovereignty displayed in salvation?

Answered in 2 sources

God’s sovereignty is evident in salvation as He chooses and calls His elect according to His divine will and purpose.

In the context of sovereign grace theology, God’s sovereignty in salvation underscores His ultimate control over all aspects of redemption. The doctrine of election, articulated in Ephesians 1:4-5, reveals that God chooses His people according to His purposes and will, independent of any merit or action on their part. This divine choice is not arbitrary but stems from God's eternal decree, emphasizing that He is the initiator in drawing sinners to Himself. Furthermore, Romans 8:30 outlines the golden chain of salvation, highlighting that those whom God predestined, He also calls, justifies, and glorifies. This secures the assurance that every aspect of our salvation is completely reliant on God's sovereign grace and His unchanging purpose.
