What Happens at Salvation
The Method by Which God Brings Salvation
Salvation is by Faith through Grace (Ephesians 2:8).
Grace is God’s attitude whereby He gives a benefit without consideration of merit.
Not related to works (Romans 11:6).
Does not take merit into consideration (Luke 2:40).
Faith is taking God at His Word and is the bases for hope in a promise (Hebrews 11:1).
God provides the faith (Philippians 1:29; Ephesians 2:8).
God seeks us today (Romans 3:11).
When we are called to salvation, this calling is an expression of God choosing us (2 Peter 1:10).
The Gospel for Salvation
Christ died on behalf of our sins and was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures (1 Corinthians 15:1–4).
This gospel has an inherent ability to save (Romans 1:16).
The message of the kingdom of the heavens could be snatched from the mind (Matthew 13:29 ).
In our age, Satan blinds the minds of the unbelievers (2 Corinthians 4:4).

Join us in person at 811 W. Main Street in Monroe, WA 98272.
If you are unable to join in person, we will have a live broadcast of our main service at 9:45 AM.
And let us consider one another in stirring up love and proper works, not forsaking the gathering of ourselves, just as is the habit of some, but encouraging, and so much more as we see the day approaching (Hebrews chapter 10:24–25).
In a world that often pulls us toward isolation, coming together face-to-face provides encouragement, clarity, and spiritual strength. At Word of Grace Studies, we gather because we value the opportunity to build up one another in truth, to stir up love and proper works, and to grow together in the faith. Whether you can come and fellowship with us or at a local assembly in your area, do not forsake the assembling of the saints, your presence matters—for your benefit and for the encouragement of others.
You’re always welcome to join us and experience the encouragement and connection that come from gathering together.
