„For by grace you have been saved through
faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the
gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast.“ Ephesians 2: 8-9
I
have already written a number of posts from the second chapter of Ephesians. Let’s
do one more. It is such a rich epistle that you do not want to skip a single
verse.
Two
things save us from wrath of God and they are: grace and faith. Grace shows
where the source of salvation is and faith enables us to connect to the source.
I am happy that Paul added the part about works. They won’t save us. The Word of
God does not leave us any possibility to boast or claim that we are good enough
to be saved. We are not. It is all through His Grace and it is all by faith.
