LESSON 2
REFUTING SALVATION BY WORKS
FAITH-ALONE PROOFTEXTS
Acts 15:11a "But we believe that through the grace of the Lord Jesus
Christ we shall be saved..."
compare with
Romans 11:6b "...But if it be of works, then is it no more grace..."
(Salvation can't be through grace and works at the same time.)
Romans 4:5 "But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that
justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness."
Galatians 2:16 "Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the
law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus
Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the
works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified."
Galatians 2:21 "I do not frustrate the grace of God: for if righteousness
come by the law, then Christ is dead in vain."
Ephesians 2:8-9 "For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of
yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should
boast."
Titus 3:5a "Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but
according to his mercy he saved us..."
