Ephesians 2:8 Douay-Rheims

For by grace you are saved through faith, and that not of yourselves, for it is the gift of God;

Ambrose of Milan

A.D. 339–397 Patristic

You have become a good son from a wicked servant; therefore, presume not from your own works, but from the grace of Christ: for by grace you have been saved, says the Apostle. Therefore, this is not arrogance, but faith: to preach what you have received is not pride, but devotion.
