Does it mean salvation is merciful and legalless only ?
Think again : Romans 6:1.
Does it mean salvation is confession only ?
Think again : Matthew 7:21-23.
Certainly Ephesians 2:8 and Ephesians 2:9-10 are talking about 2 types of law.
Whether the old law or the new law the bible never been a legalless gospel.
Whether the old law or the new law the bible never been a mercyless gospel.
John 1:17 cover:
the law and the prophets or refer to the 613 old law ordinances
grace and truth in Jesus Christ or the new law today
Both the old law and new law had blood atonement
Both had mercy and grace to a certain extinct.
Like the old law the new law got conditional grace---Romans 6:1.
No repentance no grace---Romans 6:1.
Admitting failure without the cross of Jesus is good but is that all it is to
salvation?
Think again : John 8:31.

in your name-----Matthew 7:21-23.

alcohol only----Matthew 7:21-23.
