7/2/13 page 76 “No faith is not earned. Ephesians 2: 8 - 9 (quoting so may not be perfect) “For by grace are ye saved THRU FAITH AND THAT NOT OF YOURSELVES, IT IS A GIFT OF GOD, NOT OF WORKS, LEST ANY MAN SHOULD BOAST.” Faith is a gift. We will not stand in our own merit. It will all be of God. I will not be able to stand there in his presence and say, “Look what I have done to get here.” Joe the point is: I can't get there alone. I am without hope in this world without Christ.” That answer to that question is added to this book, because my ears can listen, but I am only one lost soul.
