As Jeremiah told us, christianity is the collection of inherited lies wherein there is no profit.
The big one is Saved by Grace.
The word says we are saved by our faith, and it is by the grace of Yehova that we are led to that faith.
***
No, Ed. The Word says that we are saved BY grace THROUGH faith, not the other way around.
Ephesians 2 is very clear and cannot be read any other way. Anyone who says otherwise is contradicting the Word of God.

No, you are completely misreading the verse!
And all the other writings of the apostles have to agree, which they do with my statement.
Deliberate twisting of one single verse in Ephesians is the oddball out. Hebrews 4 absoloutely demolishes your try at buying the lie.
Every religion in the world has us DOING something to merit, earn, deserve or work for heaven, for Nirvana, for Happy Hunting Grounds, etc. ONLY genuine Christianity teaches we CANNOT earn or merit or deserve or work for our salvation. That is because it is by the grace of God and NOT we ourselves, not by works lest any should boast. A lot of braggarts out there, the proudly pious who don't like hearing that but it IS the truth. Praise God for His amazing grace!
