    By Grace Unto Works

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on May 7, 2017
     | 4,436 views

    A debate has raged for centuries regarding salvation. Is salvation an act of grace, obtained through works, or the result of a combination of grace and works? The Bible is clear regarding this question.

    By Grace unto Works Ephesians 2: 8-10 Our text today deals with doctrine that has been debated for centuries. This debate was central to Martin Luther’s Ninety-Five Theses being nailed to the chapel door in Wittenberg, Germany, sparking the Reformation.

     | 3,391 views

    Many today want to put aside any mention of shame as inappropriate. Paul, though, speaks of godly sorrow and worldly sorrow. What's the distinction and how can sorrow be a good thing?

    The Marvelous Gift Of Grace

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Apr 7, 2019
     | 6,079 views

    Following his declaration of man's depravity and the love of God to meet our desperate need, Paul reveals the means of our salvation. We are saved by grace through faith unto good works. Works do not produce salvation, but they will follow genuine salvation.

There is no doubt that we are all born in sin, separated from God and in danger of eternal condemnation because of sin. Thankfully, God understood man’s desperate need and ...read more
