What role does God's grace play in our salvation?

Answered in 2 sources

God's grace is the foundation of our salvation, enabling sinners to be chosen, called, and redeemed through Christ.

The overwhelming theme of God's grace in salvation highlights the divine initiative in bringing sinners to Christ. The Scriptures assert that it is by His grace that we are chosen and called (2 Timothy 1:9). Grace signifies that salvation is entirely unmerited, serving as a constant reminder of our dependence on God’s merciful hand. As Romans 11:6 explains, if salvation were based on works, then grace would no longer be grace. Thus, God's grace not only leads to the calling of His elect but also sustains them in their faith in Christ, ensuring that neither are we lost nor can we take any credit for our redemption.
