For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith \u2026<\/p>\n
The Bible, Ephesians 2:8<\/i><\/p>\n
Saving faith is the belief, on God\u2019s authority, of whatsoever is revealed in His Word concerning Christ; accepting and resting upon Him alone for justification and eternal life. It is wrought in the heart by the Holy Spirit, and is accompanied by all other saving graces, and leads to a life of holiness.<\/p>\n
James Boyce, Abstract of Principles, 1858<\/i><\/p>\n
Jesus proclaimed to sinners, to human beings doomed to death, that they could be saved only by a radical faith, a wholehearted conversion and new obedience to the one God.<\/p>\n
Hans K\u00fcng<\/i><\/p>\n
The only saving faith is that which casts itself on God for life or death.<\/p>\n
Martin Luther<\/i><\/p>\n
It is never on account of its formal nature as a psychic act that faith is conceived in Scripture to be saving. It is not, strictly speaking, even faith in Christ that saves, but Christ that saves through faith. The saving power resides exclusively, not in the act of faith or the attitude of faith or nature of faith, but in the object of faith.<\/p>\n
