Ephesians 2꞉10 | His Workmanship

The sermon examines Ephesians 2:1-10 to clarify the distinct relationship between salvation and good works, emphasizing that believers are God's workmanship created in Christ Jesus. It argues against the concept of Lordship Salvation, asserting that works are not the prerequisite for entering the kingdom but rather the fruit of a life already redeemed by grace. The text highlights that boasting is excluded because salvation is a gift received through faith, not achieved through human effort or moral preparation. While acknowledging the necessity of spiritual growth and obedience, the message insists that the believer's identity is rooted in Christ's finished work, not their own performance. The passage concludes by defining 'ordained' works as the predetermined outcome for those who choose to trust in Jesus, rather than a fatalistic pre-selection of individuals.
