A familiar passage in the Word is Ephesians 2:8-10. It begins “For by grace you have been saved through faith; and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God; not as a result of works, so that no one may boast. For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand so that we would walk in them.” Ephesians 2:8-10 Everything we experience as believers is by grace through faith. There is nothing we can do to – salvation, eternal life, righteousness, holiness, etc. is a gift of God. * What happens when your faith fails?
* Can a believer be filled with the spirit without speaking in tongues?
* And since the Bible refers to being sealed by the spirit, is speaking in tongues proof that one is sealed?
