SALVATION IS STRICTLY THE ACT
OF GOD BY GRACE
Ephesians 2:8-10-For by grace are ye saved
through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift
of God: 9 Not of works, lest any man should boast.
10 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ
Jesus unto good works, which God hath before
ordained that we should walk in them. (KJV)
 Romans 11:6-And if by grace, then is it no more of
works: otherwise grace is no more grace. But if it be
of works, then is it no more grace: otherwise work is
no more work. (KJV)

IS SALVATION CONDITIONED ON
VIRTUOUS LIVING?
 Romans
3:28-Therefore we conclude
that a man is justified by faith without
the deeds of the law. (KJV)
 Titus 3:5-Not by works of
righteousness which we have done, but
according to his mercy he saved us, by
the washing of regeneration, and
renewing of the Holy Ghost; (KJV)
What does Eternal Life
really mean?

John 3:16-19 (KJV)
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only
begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not
perish, but have everlasting life.
17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the
world; but that the world through him might be saved.
18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that
believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not
believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.
19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the
world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because
their deeds were evil.

Brings displeasure to God: 1 John 3:1-2-Behold,
what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon
us, that we should be called the sons of God:
therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew

that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for
we shall see him as he is. (KJV)

29 For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to be conformed to
