I’m surprised at how often I hear Bible-believing Christians make comments which clearly reveal that they understand salvation and eternal life with God to involve, in some way, their works and their efforts. I’m realizing that this false belief—that we EARN our salvation—is the natural “default” understanding of human beings. “For it is by GRACE you have been saved…NOT BY WORKS, so that no one can boast.” Eph. 2:8&9

Thank God! Not that works aren't a good thing.. but it's a blessing to know that our salvation is not up to us.
How true, Mary...how true!
