    Not By Works

    Simply put, salvation is: by Grace through faith in the Gospel message of Jesus Christ, with repentance on our part. We do not bring any pious works of our own to the throne of Grace. God says all these works of our own, are equivalent to filthy rags, as the standard is perfection. After...
