Saved By Grace Through Faith Ephesians 2:1-10.

Pause for thought

Grace has been described as Gods Riches At Christs Expense, or Gods undeserved mercy, the bottom line is Grace describes the undeserved kindness of God in freely giving salvation.

We are given salvation as a free gift when we put our trust in Jesus, but we sometimes forget that faith itself is also a free gift! 2:8

We have been made alive “together” with Christ, He is our salvation. We are raised up “together” with Christ, this describes being partakers in the resurrection. We are seated together in heavenly places in Christ, this describes our Christ given authority over the enemy 1:21. These three “togethers” illustrate our union with Jesus Christ 2:5-6

Christians know that salvation is a free gift not earned by good works 2:9 Yet many think they have to prove they really are a Christian by doing good works. Now I’m sure God is not against good works it’s just that He wants us to do the good works He prepared in advance of us even before we were made alive in Christ 2:10

Gods works are full of Gods life, Dead works are the things we decide to do and void of the life of God!

Memory verse

For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God. Ephesians 2:8
