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. Ephesians 2:8-9
Good morning in Christ our Lord! Today, I thought that I would outline for you everything I did to be saved.
1.
There it was, hope that gives you some pointers to get you started along the way. Nicodemus, that teacher of Israel, probably hoped to add to his lesson plan an outline provided by our Lord Jesus. He got an answer that went right by him without slowing down.
"Born again? How do I tell the students to do that? How will I explain it to them?" Nicodemus may well have wondered in the moment. We of course know from our advanced science, technical experience, and bigger brains... not a thing more than Nicodemus about how this born again thing is accomplished by our Lord. A list of boasts that any of us can make of ourselves in the salvation process runs just as long as what we did to make it happen.
Salvation is all the Lord's doing. Praise God for His great gift!
