Ephesians 2:8
For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: [it is] the gift of God:
 
 
Ephesians 2:9
Not of works, lest any man should boast.
 
To trust in any human work or effort as a means of salvation is to fall from grace and to sever one's self from the Savior (Gal. 5:4). No one can be saved by the combination of grace and works, for they exclude each other (Rom. 11:6). You must be saved by grace through faith alone.
