Ephesians 2:8-9

“For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast.”

  • No one will ever be good enough to earn their salvation. You are not saved when your good outweighs your bad. God’s grace is the only thing that enables us to be assured of eternal life. Jesus shed His blood on the cross because there was no other way. Jesus plus anything else does not equal salvation. Salvation is Jesus, only Jesus. Our heart for Christ and a life committed to Him is what produces the fruit in our lives. We must understand that He is the only way. There are a lot of people who do good things and have no relationship with Christ. All the good things they do will not earn them salvation. Without Jesus Christ in their life they are bound for hell when they pass from this life. We must never assume someone is saved because they are a “good person”. Ask them to tell you about their faith. If they know Christ, they will be glad to share their story with you. Their salvation is far more important than any discomfort you, or they, may feel.
  • We cannot do enough good to be saved and doing good will not keep us saved. The nicest, most giving person in the world is headed for Hell unless Jesus Christ becomes their Lord and Savior. God’s grace is our salvation when our faith is in Jesus Christ. Nothing we can do apart from Jesus will save us! Our salvation, growth and maturity as Christians does not come from our actions, it comes from our relationship with Jesus Christ. Good works through Jesus Christ reap great benefits but good works apart from Jesus reap no rewards and will never assure your salvation. His grace and your faith will save you. Your works are never a part of the equation.  Once you submit yourself to Jesus Christ and allow Him to be your Savior and your Lord, good will follow. Good follows salvation…it never causes it.
  • Is your love for others deep enough that you would share Jesus with them?

John 14:6 “Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.””

Isaiah 5:11-12

“Woe to those who rise early in the morning, that they may run after strong drink, who tarry late into the evening as wine inflames them. They have lyre and harp, tambourine and flute and wine at their feasts, but they do not regard the deeds of the Lord, or see the work of his hands.”

Isaiah 3:9

“For the look on their faces bears witness against them; they proclaim their sin like Sodom; they do not hide it. Woe to them. For they have brought evil on themselves.” Acts 6:15 “And gazing at him, all who sat in the council saw that his face was like the face of an angel.”

Isaiah 1:18-20

“Come now, let us reason together, says the Lord: though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they are red like crimson, they shall become like wool. If you are willing and obedient, you shall eat the good of the land; but if you refuse and rebel, you shall be eaten by the sword; for the mouth of the Lord has spoken.” 1 John 1:6-7 “If we say we have fellowship with him while we walk in darkness, we lie and do not practice the truth. But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus his Son cleanses us from all sin.” 1 John 1:9 “If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.”

Isaiah 1:5-6

“Why will you still be struck down? Why will you continue to rebel? The whole head is sick, and the whole heart faint. From the sole of the foot even to the head, there is no soundness in it, but bruises and sores and raw wounds; they are not pressed out or bound up or softened with oil.” James 4:10 “Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will lift you up.”

Ecclesiastes 12:13-14

“Now all has been heard; here is the conclusion of the matter: Fear God and keep his commandments, for this is the duty of all mankind. For God will bring every deed into judgment, including every hidden thing, whether it is good or evil.” Romans 4:7-8 “Blessed are those whose transgressions are forgiven, whose sins are covered. Blessed is the one whose sin the Lord will never count against them.” Romans 5:8 “But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.” 1 John 1:9 “If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness.” Romans 8:1-2 “Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus, because through Christ Jesus the law of the Spirit who gives life has set you free from the law of sin and death.” Acts 4:12 “Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to mankind by which we must be saved.” John 14:6 “Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father
