Grace, Faith and Works

Theme: The Foundation of the Christian Faith

Good evening all,

Please find attached the Bible study outline for the topic “Grace, Faith, and Works, the next in this quarter’s series on The Foundation of the Christian Faith.  The main text is Ephesians 2:1-10 and the key learning points are:

1.     The sin of Adam and Eve made every man a sinner thereby bringing death and eternal damnation; but God’s grace through the death of His Son brought salvation to all that believe and receive.  

2.     Faith in God’s begotten Son is the only way man can access this salvation – which is freely given and is not to be boasted about.

3.     Our “good works” are not a pre-requisite for obtaining this salvation; however, as the redeemed of the Lord, we’re to bring forth fruits (works) that prove that there’s a change of heart from our old ways – fruits consistent with our new life in Christ.
