# Central Truth of Ephesians 2:8-9 **Salvation is by grace through faith alone, not by works.** This passage emphasizes that salvation is a gift from God, received through faith, and cannot be earned through human effort or good deeds. ## The Verse: *"For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast."* (Ephesians 2:8-9, ESV)
