[847.56 --> 848.70] which was mentioned before
[848.70 --> 849.84] says
[849.84 --> 851.34] for it is by grace
[851.34 --> 852.38] you have been saved
[852.38 --> 853.24] through faith
[853.24 --> 854.64] and this is not
[854.64 --> 855.24] from yourselves
[855.24 --> 856.30] it is a gift of God
[856.30 --> 857.12] not by works
[857.12 --> 858.98] so that no one can boast.
[864.50 --> 865.54] Nothing we could do
[865.54 --> 866.40] could ever earn
[866.40 --> 867.40] ourselves salvation.
[867.82 --> 868.52] It is by God's
[868.52 --> 869.98] sheer grace alone
[869.98 --> 871.00] that we are saved.
[871.90 --> 873.02] No effort of our own
[873.02 --> 873.76] could have saved us
[873.76 --> 874.58] and no good deed
[874.58 --> 875.36] could have earned it.
[876.00 --> 878.42] It is by God's grace alone.
[880.16 --> 881.12] The Heidelberg Catechism
[881.12 --> 882.24] which we are familiar with
[882.24 --> 882.82] if you grew up
[882.82 --> 883.48] in this church
[883.48 --> 885.18] or other CRC churches
[885.18 --> 886.30] we learned it
[886.30 --> 886.86] in our youth
[886.86 --> 888.86] some have even memorized it
[888.86 --> 889.54] to an extent.
[890.22 --> 891.46] It serves as a concise
[891.46 --> 892.42] and thorough teaching
[892.42 --> 893.04] of the truths
[893.04 --> 893.86] that we believe
[893.86 --> 895.16] the Bible teaches.
[895.98 --> 896.82] This catechism
[896.82 --> 898.20] encapsulates James' teaching
[898.20 --> 899.32] in a few of the Lord's Days.
[900.36 --> 901.92] The Lord's Day 7 says
[901.92 --> 903.70] true faith
[903.70 --> 905.36] is not only a knowledge
[905.36 --> 905.96] and a conviction
[905.96 --> 907.32] that everything God reveals
[907.32 --> 908.38] in His Word is true
[908.38 --> 910.48] is a deep rooted assurance
[910.48 --> 911.26] created in me
[911.26 --> 912.14] by the Holy Spirit
[912.14 --> 912.82] through the Gospel
[912.82 --> 914.72] that out of sheer grace
[914.72 --> 915.60] earned for us
[915.60 --> 916.62] by Christ
[916.62 --> 918.12] not only others
[918.12 --> 918.84] but I too
[918.84 --> 921.26] have had my sins forgiven
[921.26 --> 922.78] have been made forever
[922.78 --> 923.58] right with God
[923.58 --> 925.72] and have been granted salvation.
[927.60 --> 929.12] The Lord's Day 24
[929.12 --> 930.42] goes on to say
[930.42 --> 931.70] it is impossible
[931.70 --> 932.78] for those grafted
[932.78 --> 933.92] into Christ
[933.92 --> 935.06] by true faith
[935.06 --> 936.62] not to produce
[936.62 --> 937.74] fruits of gratitude.
[940.24 --> 942.24] James has been teaching us
[942.24 --> 943.14] that good deeds
[943.14 --> 944.26] follow faith.
[944.62 --> 945.16] These deeds
[945.16 --> 946.16] don't save us
[946.16 --> 947.20] they couldn't.
[947.96 --> 948.68] When James says
[948.68 --> 949.20] that deeds
[949.20 --> 950.92] accompany good faith
[950.92 --> 951.54] it's because
[951.54 --> 952.48] we are being made
[952.48 --> 953.58] like Christ
[953.58 --> 955.26] we're being sanctified.
[955.84 --> 956.36] The Holy Spirit
[956.36 --> 957.34] is working out salvation
[957.34 --> 957.78] in us
[957.78 --> 959.60] to be more like Christ
[959.60 --> 961.00] every single day
[961.00 --> 961.98] which means that
[961.98 --> 963.08] because we are being saved
[963.08 --> 964.04] and being made
[964.04 --> 964.92] more like Christ
[964.92 --> 966.60] we then will act
[966.60 --> 967.46] more like Christ
[967.46 --> 968.54] for the more
[968.54 --> 969.38] any good we do
[969.38 --> 969.94] is because of
[969.94 --> 970.86] His strength.
[971.62 --> 972.56] We can never do good
[972.56 --> 973.26] in God's eyes
[973.26 --> 973.92] if it wasn't for
[973.92 --> 974.48] His strength
[974.48 --> 975.80] His goodness
[975.80 --> 977.34] His faithfulness
[977.34 --> 978.52] and His Spirit
