Grace is mentioned a lot in God's word. I understand grace to be.....Everything that belongs to Jesus Christ and is made availiable to us...all of his riches...everything that belongs to Christ has been freely given to us because of who we are in Christ. G-God's R-Righteousness A-at C-Christ E-Expense Eph. 1:3 "Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ." Unmerited unearned favor-Grace!His grace is-Rich- Eph. 1:has made us acceptable- Eph. 1:6Made us alive-Eph. 2:5We are saved by-Eph. 2:8Paul was a steward of his grace to teach us Eph. 3:2Grace is where the gifts come from -Eph. 3:7; 4:7Grace!

I am hoping to cover all the passages with grace mentioned, I started in Eph. and AlanforChrist mentioned those in 1 Corinthians. There is so much involved in this one word.

setfree, The Greek term translated Grace, means Undeserved Kindness. To gain salvation we must have the Grace of God. This means being in a saved condition, Promerit. There is much more that goes with this term. We must be Declared Righteous by Undeserved Kindness, Rom 3:23,24,5:1,2, Gal 2:16. Since we are sinners we cannot BE righteous, we must be Declared Righteous on the basis of Jesus' Ransom Sacrifice. There is no such thing as Justification by Works, there is a Justification by Faith, apart from the works of the Law Covenant, Rom 3:27-30. By God not charging our sins against us, but charging them to Jesus, who gave his life for us, we can be Declared Righteous, and have the hope of everlasting life, John 3:16, Matt 20:28, Eph 1:6,7.
