John Murray on Salvation and Grace

November 17th, 2004  |  Published in Religion  |  3 Comments

“In salvation we must not so emphasize grace that we overlook the salvation itself.  The concept of salvation involves what we are saved to as well as what we are saved from.  We are saved to holiness and good works (see Eph. 2:10).  And holiness manifests itself in good works.”
—John Murray, Romans

    I’ve never, ever heard, outside of Reformed literature on the internet, this type of treatment of Ephesians 2. Ephesians 2:8-9 is the major prooftext for modern easy believism. It’s pretty sad.
