What role does faith play in salvation if God elects individuals?

While the doctrine of election emphasizes God's sovereign choice, it does not negate the role of faith in salvation. In Reformed theology, faith is considered a gift from God, enabling the elect to respond to His call. As Paul explains, the elect are saved through faith, which itself is a result of God's grace. This interrelation between God's election and human belief underscores the importance of recognizing that even faith is reliant on God's initiative, preventing any room for boasting and directing all glory to Him.
