What does it mean that we are saved by grace?

Answered in 1 source

Being saved by grace means that salvation is unearned and solely the result of God’s mercy and provision through Christ (Ephesians 2:8-9).

The doctrine of salvation by grace is central to the Christian faith. Ephesians 2:8-9 states, 'For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.' This highlights that salvation is not based on human efforts or merit, but solely on God’s grace. Grace signifies that we receive the unmerited favor of God, enabling us to be reconciled to Him through faith in Jesus Christ. This grace transforms believers, leading them to live in accordance with His will, and assures them of eternal life, distancing themselves from the pride of self-achievement.
