About this episode

Pastor Roderick Webster discusses the nature of salvation, emphasizing that it is based on grace rather than works.

Have you ever felt like you need to do more to deserve God's love? In this episode of Words From The Word, Pastor Roderick Webster walks through Ephesians 2:7-8 (KJV) to remind us that salvation has never been about what we do — it is entirely about what God has done. You will learn why grace means God does it all for Jesus' sake, why faith is not a work but a response of trust, and why Jesus declaring "It is finished" on the cross means no one can add to or take away from your salvation. A comforting and gospel-rooted word for anyone who needs reassurance today. Subscribe to Words From The Word wherever you listen to podcasts.
