That's Grace (October 3, 2024)
"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. For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them." (Ephesians" (Ephesians 2:8-1
Repentant sinners are not saved by good works; they are saved for good works that serve other people and glorify the gracious God of all creation. There is no more precious gift than the salvation that is offered to everyone by the grace of God alone. But the only way to receive God's all-sufficient grace is through faith in Jesus Christ, who died, was buried, and rose again that whosoever will might be saved! We should praise and thank God every day for the eternal salvation that is offered everyone and given as a priceless gift to believers exclusively on the basis of what Christ has done for for us, not because of anything we can do. That's grace!
