Fusion: week of 2/5

FAMILY THEME: SAVED BY GRACE

Ephesians 2:1-10

Scripture is clear that we are saved by grace alone, through faith alone,

in Christ alone.

1.  Our Salvation is Based on Who God Is, Not on What We Have Done

     (Ephesians 2:1-5;  Romans 3:21-26;  5:15-21;  11:5-6)

     God demonstrates overwhelming mercy, love, and grace when He

     saves us.

 
2.  We Are Saved to Bring God Glory

     (Ephesians 2:6-8; Philippians 2:3-13; Colossians 1:15-20)

     Our efforts do not make us more praiseworthy than others, but

     demonstrate His power and praiseworthiness.

 
3.  We Are Saved to Do Good Works That Draw People to God

     (Ephesians 2:8-10; 2 Corinthians 4:1-6;  5:16-21)

     Salvation from Jesus produces service to Jesus.
