like I said dunamus is not charis, power is not grace 2 different words.I would rather read and learn what the Jewish apostles mean. They are the ones inspired.
One of the Semitic writing styles of Jews is called parallelisms. Writing the same thing twice using different words for clarity. One word explains the other. Here are a couple examples if you want to learn advanced theology, and not just what tickles your ears.
Acts 4:33
And with great power the apostles gave witness to the resurrection of the Lord Jesus.
And great grace was upon them all.
1 Corinthians 1:
4 I thank my God always concerning you for the grace of God which was given to you by Christ Jesus, 5 that you were enriched in everything by Him in all utterance and all knowledge, 6 even as the testimony of Christ was confirmed in you, 7 so that you come short in no gift, eagerly waiting for the revelation of our Lord Jesus Christ, 8 who will also confirm you to the end, that you may be blameless in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ. 9 God is faithful, by whom you were called into the fellowship of His Son, Jesus Christ our Lord. (That is why the Book of Revelation is about the second coming of Christ.)
And oh look: the grace of God which was given to you by Christ Jesus, 5 that you were enriched in everything by Him in all utterance and all knowledge
Humble yourself and want to learn. I do know what I'm talking about.
I will pass on your "advanced " theology when you cannot even give a biblical definition of charis(grace).
that is like saying justification is the same as sanctification.
No real bible student would ever use a dictionary from the world to define biblical words and their meaning. They would use a Hebrew and Greek dictionary not an english dictionary.
You are reading your doctrine into scripture which is eisegesis and using unbiblical sources for your definitions. That results in chaos and false teaching.
hope this helps !!!
