What does the Bible teach about God's sovereignty in salvation?

Answered in 2 sources

The Bible teaches that God is sovereign over salvation, choosing whom He will save according to His mercy.

God's sovereignty in salvation is a central tenet of Reformed theology, affirmed in Acts 7 through the story of Moses and Israel's deliverance. Stephen's discourse highlights that our coming to faith is entirely dependent on God's initiative; we cannot choose Him unless He first reveals Himself. This underscores the truth that God's grace is irresistible and that salvation comes from Him alone. Regardless of our sinful state, He elects and calls His people to Himself by His will and purpose.
