For by grace are you saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:
All Commentaries on Ephesians 2:8 Go To Ephesians 2
Fulgentius of Ruspe
AD 533
The blessed Paul argues that we are saved by faith, which he declares to be not from us but a gift from God. Thus there cannot possibly be true salvation where there is no true faith, and, since this faith is divinely enabled, it is without doubt bestowed by his free generosity. Where there is true belief through true faith, true salvation certainly accompanies it. Anyone who departs from true faith will not possess the grace of true salvation.
