What is the origin of salvation according to the Bible?

Answered in 1 source

The origin of salvation is found in God's unmerited grace, bestowed freely upon His people.

Salvation originates from God's sovereign will and unmerited compassion, which is a reaffirmation of His grace towards sinners. As stated in Ephesians 1:4-5, God chose His people in Christ before the foundation of the world. This indicates that salvation is not a product of human merit or effort but is completely initiated by God out of His love and mercy. 1 Corinthians 4:7 emphasizes that any distinction of grace among individuals comes not from their inherent worth but from God's sovereign choice. Hence, the believer's salvation is rooted in the rich grace of God, reflective of His character and intentions toward humanity.
