Of course I have, annalex. It means what it says and says what it means: we (those who are saved) are created IN Christ Jesus unto good works. The question is: how are we IN Christ Jesus? By accepting the finished work of Christ on our behalf. That’s called salvation.

Your church hangs onto a rock they call Peter, takes one step forward and trips over the Eph. 2:8,9 stumblingstone. You would be better off if you claimed that rock was indeed Christ. There would be no stumblingstone, if that were the case.

It does not say our salvation is finished. If we have the kind of faith that works, then we would walk in the good works and then we are saved.
