What is the relationship between faith and grace in salvation?

Answered in 2 sources

Faith is the means by which we receive God's grace for salvation.

Faith and grace work together in the process of salvation; grace is what God offers as a gift, while faith is the act of receiving that gift. Ephesians 2:8 clearly states, 'For by grace are ye saved through faith.' This indicates that while salvation is an unmerited gift from God, it requires a response of trust in Christ. Faith itself is not a work that earns salvation; it is a reliance on grace, affirming that the salvation process is entirely rooted in God's mercy and not human effort.
