Theology & Doctrine
for by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God,
being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus;
to the praise of the glory of his grace, by which he freely gave us favor in the Beloved,
that in the ages to come he might show the exceeding riches of his grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus;
For the grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation to all men,
For sin will not have dominion over you. For you are not under law, but under grace.
The grace of our Lord abounded exceedingly with faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.
So then it is not of him who wills, nor of him who runs, but of God who has mercy.
Grace to you and peace from God the Father, and our Lord Jesus Christ,
in whom we have our redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of his grace,
if it is so that you have heard of the administration of that grace of God which was given me toward you;
who saved us and called us with a holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given to us in Christ Jesus before times eternal,
to Timothy, my true child in faith: Grace, mercy, and peace, from God our Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.
But the free gift isn’t like the trespass. For if by the trespass of the one the many died, much more did the grace of God, and the gift by the grace of the one man, Jesus Christ, abound to the many.
And if by grace, then it is no longer of works; otherwise grace is no longer grace. But if it is of works, it is no longer grace; otherwise work is no longer work.
But to each one of us was the grace given according to the measure of the gift of Christ.
But you, Lord, are a merciful and gracious God, slow to anger, and abundant in loving kindness and truth.
Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
