In Ephesians 2:8-9, Paul wrote, “For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: not of works, lest any man should boast.” Some Christians say these verses prove that practices such as baptism cannot be necessary for salvation because they are “works." Dr. David K. Bernard refutes this argument with an explanation of the biblical understanding of grace and faith.
