DEPENDENCE ON THE SAVIOUR

“God saved you by His grace when you believed. And you can’t take credit for this; it is a gift from God. Salvation is not a reward for the good things we have done, so none of us can boast about it.”  (Ephesians 2:8-9 NLT)

To have faith is to rely upon Christ, the Person, with the whole heart.  It is not the understanding of the mind, not the theological opinion, not creed, not organization, not ritual.  It is the koinonia of the whole personality with God and Christ, ...  This experience of communion with Christ is itself the continual attitude of dependence on the Saviour which we call faith. 

-- Kokichi Kurosaki in “One Body in Christ”
