What does the Bible say about salvation being done rather than do?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible emphasizes that salvation is entirely based on what Christ has done for us, rather than what we do.

The Apostle Paul contrasts the two systems of belief by describing a religion of 'do' versus a religion of 'done.' In Acts 13:12, the deputy believed when he saw what was done, pointing to the finished work of Christ. This pivotal moment illustrates that true faith comes from understanding that salvation is a completed act of God's grace, not a result of our deeds or efforts. As indicated in Hebrews 1:3, Jesus purged our sins by Himself, reinforcing that salvation's completion rests solely on His finished work, which we are called to accept by faith.
