Gotta go do stuff, but ...

We are saved through grace alone by both faith given us by the Father and works prepared for us by the Lord (Eph. 2:5-10)

How about this formulation?

We are saved through by grace alone, both by both faith given us by the Father and through works prepared for us by the Lord.

I take "by" to signify (in this case) an intermediate agent,and "through" to suggest not some much agency as, um, itinerary.

I'll try to get back on later for feedback.

Of course. I got my by's and through's mixed up.
