What does Romans 11:36 teach about God's purpose in salvation?

Answered in 1 source

Romans 11:36 teaches that all things in salvation are from, through, and to Christ, emphasizing His central role.

In Romans 11:36, the Apostle Paul summarizes the sovereignty of God in creation and redemption, indicating that all things originate from Him, operate through Him, and ultimately are directed toward Him. This implies that every aspect of salvation is centered around Christ. The stories of biblical deliverance, such as Jonathan's victory in 1 Samuel 14, reflect God's overriding purpose to glorify His Son through His work of salvation. All believers, being part of this divine plan, highlight that their salvation is entirely dependent on Christ, affirming the Reformed understanding of grace and divine sovereignty.
