”Then said Ziba unto the king, According to all that my lord the king hath commanded his servant, so shall thy servant do. As for Mephibosheth, said the king, he shall eat at my table, as one of the king’s sons.” | 2 Samuel 9: 11

Faith is necessary for salvation.

But we do not look to our faith to save us; rather, in faith, we look to Christ.

Repentance is necessary for salvation.

But we do not look to our repentance to save us; rather, in repentance, we turn to Christ.

There are graces, which God works in us as He saves us. But these graces are never to be the object of our trust, confidence or hopeful gaze.

All the graces God gives us in salvation are to be used to look to, turn to, appreciate, and lay hold of Christ, who is our Salvation!
