Ephesians 2:8–10
Start with grace
Salvation is God's gift and creates a life of obedience.
Answer the false choice between grace and an obedient response of faith.
Salvation is God's gift and creates a life of obedience.
Paul joins grace, apostleship, faith, and obedience.
Biblical faith is active rather than lifeless.
Faith with no corresponding action is dead.
Baptism is faith in God's operation, not confidence in human merit.
Apostolic Guide gives you a starting point, not a substitute for the text. Read each reference in its surrounding chapter, compare Scripture with Scripture, and let the Bible shape your conclusion.
