Faith, Works, and Free Will | Drive Bible Podcast (Ephesians 2:1-10)

Welcome to The Drive Bible Podcast! In this deep dive into Ephesians Chapter 2:1-10, we explore the profound truth of "The Grace of Salvation." Join us as we break down what it truly means to be saved by grace through faith, examining the critical verses Ephesians 2:8-9: "For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast."

This episode tackles the tension between predestination and free will, challenging common interpretations and providing a biblical perspective on God's omniscience and humanity's choices. We discuss how God has always given us a choice, even as He foreknows all things (Romans 8:29-30).

We then unpack the vital concepts of grace, faith, and salvation. Learn how:

Grace saves us, is the essence of the Bible, gives victory over sin, and provides God's mercy, favor, and love.

Faith is trust and conviction in God and Jesus Christ, requiring intellectual assent and belief in truth.

Salvation is deliverance from God's judgment and the penalty of sin, leading to an eternal destiny in the Kingdom of God.

Discover how these three foundational elements impact our lives as believers. We'll explore how our faith drives our actions, and why "a faith that does not change you, cannot save you." Hear a powerful discussion on being "doers of the word, and not hearers only" (James 1:22) and the relationship between faith and works (James 2:18-22).

We also delve into Colossians 1:10-14, finding encouragement to "walk worthy of the Lord, fully pleasing Him, being fruitful in every good work."

Tune in to gain a clearer understanding of God's amazing grace, the role of your faith, and your predestined calling to good works as a believer in Christ.
