HOW IS A SINNER SAVED?
\nHow is a sinner saved? The apostle Paul very plainly tells us how! In
\nEphesians 2:8 he said, \u201cFor by grace are ye saved through faith; and
\nthat not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:\u201d Salvation is a work of
\nGod\u2019s grace. It was God\u2019s grace that chose the sinner before the
\nfoundation of the world. It was God\u2019s grace that sent Christ in due time
\nto die on the cross as a substitute for all of His chosen people. And it
\nis God\u2019s grace that sends His Holy Spirit to each one of those
\nparticular people with the gift of faith. Faith believes totally on
\nChrist. Faith believes His Word. Faith causes sinners to believe that
\nThe Father did all of the choosing in salvation, and The Son did all of
\nthe redeeming work in salvation. Faith causes sinners to cry: \u201cIt is not
\nof ourselves\u2026 it is of Christ alone!\u201d A truly saved sinner will know
\nthat he cannot take any credit for any part of his salvation, not even
\nfor the faith that believes. Even that is \u201cthe gift of God\u201d. Pastor Gabe
