salvation by grace

How is one saved? i.e. salvation is by grace alone through faith alone. Salvation by grace is believing on the Lord Jesus Christ as one’s personal savior. You cannot work for it or earn it. The Philippian jailer asked Paul and Silas when they were in prison: “Sirs, what must I do to be saved?” And they said, “Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved. (Acts 16:30-31). Salvation is a free gift that all one must do is accept it. “Because of his great love for us, God, who is rich in mercy, made us alive with Christ even when we were dead in transgressions—it is by grace you have been saved. And God raised us up with Christ and seated us with him in the heavenly realms in Christ Jesus, in order that in the coming ages he might show the incomparable riches of his grace, expressed in his kindness to us in Christ Jesus. For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— not by works, so that no one can boast. (Ephesians 2: 4-9). Its your choice. What will you do today?

Did you post this on the wrong site? If not then I'm really struggling to work out what gives you the right to judge anyone.

I love where you say "Salvation is a free gift that all one must do is accept it." Let me give you an example.

So my Mum gave a cash gift to my sister last year, should I be judgemental on what she spent it on or glad that my mother is able to help her?

Today I will make a number of choices ranging from what to have for breakfast to whether I to work on Monday or maybe whether I give other human beings the space to be them.

Some of my comments make not make perfect sense but I don't write well when I am angry as hell.

where does it say that I'm judging someone. its up to the person to make a choice if they so choose too. if not that is also their choice. better people know they have one than to never have been given it.

But surely that's the point of Christ (God) giving us choice. Whatever choice the individual makes is the correct one in God's eyes otherwise God wouldn't give the choice.

Being accepted by God is the vital thing not being accepted by some earthbound doctrine.

If every choice was correct one in God's eyes we wouldn't need a choice. God would not have given us free will. where in the bible does it say every choice is the correct one in God's eyes? Jesus is the eternal God and He said, "I am the way the truth and the life, no man comes to the Father except through me." Jesus also said, " Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it. sounds like 1 choice is right in God's eyes and the others are not going to lead you to be with God.
