How does faith relate to grace according to Scripture?

Answered in 1 source

Faith is the means by which we receive God's grace, and it's described as a gift from God.

According to Ephesians 2:8-9, 'For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God.' Faith is the instrument through which believers access the grace of God for salvation. Understanding this relationship underscores that faith is not a work we accomplish but rather a divine gift given by God Himself. The assurance and peace that come from faith rely on the grace extended through the Gospel, affirming the believer's position in Christ. Thus, while we exercise faith, it is fundamentally grounded in the unmerited grace that God provides.
