What does the Bible say about who should be saved?

Answered in 2 sources

The Bible teaches that salvation is of the Lord, and He saves those whom He has chosen in Christ.

According to Acts 2:47, 'the Lord added to the church daily, such as should be saved.' This indicates that the sovereignty of God is at the heart of salvation; specifically, it is God who determines who will be saved. Historically, Reformed theology emphasizes that those who are saved are those whom God has chosen in Christ before the foundation of the world, as seen in passages like Ephesians 1:4-5. Salvation is not based on human merit but on God's sovereign grace, which operates according to His eternal purpose and will.
