“Salvation is not a reward for the good things we have done, so none of us can boast about it.”
—Ephesians 2:9
No one has ever achieved salvation through human effort. But if you really have found salvation, then people should be able to see visible results of that in your life.
A lot of people today claim to be Christians, yet there is absolutely no evidence in their lives to confirm it.
Paul clearly devastated any argument that works can produce salvation when he wrote, “God saved you by his grace when you believed. And you can’t take credit for this; it is a gift from God. Salvation is not a reward for the good things we have done, so none of us can boast about it” (Ephesians 2:8–9 NLT).
