AMPLIFIED 2015 | Ephesians 2:8 For it is by grace [God's remarkable compassion and favor drawing you to Christ] that you have been saved [actually delivered from judgment and given eternal life] through faith. And this [salvation] is not of yourselves [not through your own effort], but it is the [undeserved, gracious] gift of God; |
Bible Question: How does Paul contrast the understanding of salvation by grace and the mistaken understanding of salvation by good works? Eph 2:5-9 |
Bible Answer: Ephesians 2:8,9: 8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: 9 Not of works, lest any man should boast. Salvation by grace through faith is a gift of God. No “works” we perform can in effect grant us our salvation. It is by God’s grace we are saved. WOS |
