The Bible consistently teaches that salvation is by grace through faith, not of works, ensuring that God receives all the glory.
Ephesians 2:8-9 clearly affirms that by grace we are saved through faith, and this not from ourselves. It is a gift from God, not by works, so that no one can boast. The sermon emphasizes that all aspects of salvation—from faith to justification—are solely by God's grace. This doctrine frees humanity from the bondage of legalism and assures that salvation is entirely dependent on God's sovereign will, satisfying His justice through Christ's completed work.
