It Is By Grace That We Have Been Saved
For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— not by works, so that no one can boast. Ephesians 2:8-9, NIV Salvation is not based on what we do or the sacrifices we made for God. It’s not about our own efforts or strength. But it’s all about grace and faith. This is the reason why we shouldn’t think that God will lead His children to Heaven because of the good things that they did. If this is the case, then someone would boast and count their efforts. It’s grace that will lead us to experience eternity…

Acts 4:12, NIV
Jesus is “‘the stone you builders rejected, which has become the cornerstone.’ Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to mankind by which we must be saved.” Acts 4:12, NIV Salvation is found only in the arms of Jesus. He is the One who has given us the chance to experience eternal life. Some Jews and Pharisees may reject Him, but He became the cornerstone. He became the hope of this world.
