“God saved you by his grace when you believed… it is a
gift from God. Salvation
is not a reward for the good things we have done…He has created us anew in
Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things he planned for us long ago.” – Ephesians
2: 8 - 10
CHRISTIANS weren’t saved by faith in Christ just to go to
heaven. According to the Bible, God has a job for us here on earth. We were saved
to do good things, to do what God prepared in advance for every one of us –
each to his own – so that His will could be done in the lives we touch during
our given time on earth. Just believing,
having faith in Christ, saves us, but it
takes faith and a life of deeds, a Christian life of service, discipleship, to
delight our Maker (see Psalm 37). We must build on our faith.
