Eph 2:8 | MHM | STEP | v. 8–9 : Paul makes it clear that salvation is by grace through faith and not of yourselves: it is the gift of God (Ephesians 2:8 ). Faith is not something we produce on our own—it is a gift from God. Salvation is not of works, lest any man should boast (Ephesians 2:9 ). This means no one can take credit for their salvation. It is entirely God’s work, and all glory belongs to Him.

Faith is not something we produce on our own—it is a gift from God. Salvation is not of works, lest any man should boast (Ephesians 2:9 ^b). This means no one can take credit for their salvation.
