Why is it important that salvation comes from God?

Answered in 1 source

Salvation is entirely of God’s grace, not dependent on human will or merit.

The significance of salvation being from God lies in the doctrine of grace and the inability of man to save himself. John 1:13 states that believers are 'born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.' This underscores the sovereignty of God in the salvation process, affirming that human effort or lineage cannot earn salvation. It is solely through God’s grace that we are regenerated and given faith to believe. This doctrine reassures believers that their salvation is secure, anchored in God's power rather than their own fluctuating will.
