What does the Bible say about salvation without works?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible teaches that salvation cannot be achieved through works, as only God's grace through faith leads to salvation.

The Scripture clearly indicates that salvation is not a product of human effort. For example, in Ephesians 2:8-9, we see that '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.' This highlights that no matter how virtuous our actions may seem, they cannot merit our justification before God. The notion of relying on our works for salvation is as futile as attempting to reach the stars while on a treadmill. Ultimately, complete dependence on God's grace and mercy is essential for salvation.
