• 8For by grace you have been saved
through faith. And this is not your own
doing; it is the gift of God,
• 9not a result of works, so that no one
may boast.
• 10For we are his workmanship, created
in Christ Jesus for good works, which
God prepared beforehand, that we
should walk in them.

Salvation is by grace through faith
not by works

Faith is a response to grace. That
faith itself is a gift from God as we
were spiritually dead when God
made us alive. (Eph 2:5)
