Ephesians 2:8-9

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon

Read in KJV Bible Reader

Ephesians 2:8-9. And that not of yourselves: it is a gift of God: not of works, lest any man should boast.

"Oh!" said one to me just now, "the man who is saved by his own righteousness cannot do much in the line of praising." "No, my dear brother," I replied, "except he praises himself; and he can generally do that pretty well." Your self-made man usually worships his creator very earnestly; and your self-saved man glorifies him that saved him.
