What does the Bible say about how salvation comes?

According to Titus 2:11, 'For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men.' This verse emphasizes that salvation is not achieved by works or human effort; rather, it is God's grace that brings salvation to sinners. This grace is unmerited and entirely dependent on God's initiative, not on human righteousness or effort. The Scriptures further affirm this in Ephesians 2:8-9, where we read that we are saved by grace through faith, and that not of ourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest any man should boast. Thus, salvation is firmly rooted in God's grace, devoid of any contributions from human beings.
