The subject or topic of grace is a controversial subject to many. Some choose to believe that grace… and the law… or works are in conflict with each other. To many… grace and the law of God are like “fire and water.” As is common practice with religious people complex theologies have been created regarding grace and what it means. Leaving the “simplicity that is in Christ” (2 Cor. 11:3) hundreds of books have been written on the topic of grace alone, and what it supposedly means. Today, I would like to go to the New Testament Scriptures and explain what God’s instruction manual tells us about this wonderfully powerful word and concept.
