Wait, what was that again?

Eph 2:8 For by grace you have been saved through faith; and that not of yourselves, {it is} the gift of God;(NAS)

I know this verse was in the passage from yesterday, but it kind of got neglected. Actually, I think I've had a previous blog on this verse. In fact, it may just be that this is one of my favorite verses. Salvation as absolutely nothing to do with us. We live because of God's grace through faith in what Jesus did for us. On top of that, the faith to believe is a gift of God as well. It goes on to explain that all the credit belongs to God, not what we've done, but what He's done:

Eph 2:9 not as a result of works, that no one should boast.(NAS)
