How Do I Distinguish Between Praising God and Boasting About Self? Also: Is Boasting “Excluded” in Paul’s Mind so That There is a Proof That Salvation is Apart From Works?

Welcome to Grace in Focus radio. In today’s episode, we are going to answer a question related to boasting. How do we distinguish between praising God and boasting in yourself? Bob and Shawn will address this question in light of passages such as Eph 2:8-9 and Rom 3:26-28. Bob will also draw out the theme of eternal life being a “gift” to those who believe. We hope you enjoy the discussion as we strive to keep grace in focus.
