What role do we play in our salvation according to Scripture?

Scripture emphasizes that salvation is a work of God alone, as captured in Philippians 1:6: 'He which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ.' This verse underscores that our role is passive; we do not contribute to our salvation through works or efforts. Rather, it is God who initiates, sustains, and completes our salvation, reflecting the core tenet of sovereign grace theology that God’s choice and action in salvation are paramount. Our response is simply one of faith, resting in what He has done.
