What does the Bible say about grace given in Christ before the world began?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible teaches that grace was given to us in Christ Jesus before the world began, signifying God's eternal purpose in salvation.

In 2 Timothy 1:9, we see that God saved us and called us with a holy calling, not according to our works but according to His own purpose and grace, which was given to us in Christ Jesus before the world began. This emphasizes the notion that salvation is not an afterthought but an integral part of God's eternal plan. Before the foundation of the world, God determined to save a people for Himself through the work of Christ. This predestinated grace reflects the sovereign will of God, showing that salvation is wholly dependent upon His purposes and not on any human effort or merit.
