What Is Grace?

Grace is the opposite of karma, which is all about getting what you deserve. Grace is getting what you don’t deserve.

Justin holcomb

“The very center and core of the whole Bible is the doctrine of the grace of God.” 
–J. Gresham Machen

“Grace” is the most important concept in the Bible, Christianity, and the world. It is most clearly expressed in the promises of God revealed in Scripture and embodied in Jesus Christ.

Grace is the love of God shown to the unlovely; the peace of God given to the restless; the unmerited favor of God.

What is grace and what are some ways people have defined grace?

“Grace is free sovereign favor to the ill-deserving.”(B.B. Warfield)

“Grace is love that cares and stoops and rescues.”(John Stott)

“[Grace] is God reaching downward to people who are in rebellion against Him.”(Jerry Bridges)

“Grace is unconditional love toward a person who does not deserve it.” (Paul Zahl)

Grace is most needed and best understood in the midst of sin, suffering, and brokenness. We live in a world of earning, deserving, and merit, and these result in judgment. That is why everyone wants and needs grace. Judgment kills. Only grace makes alive.

A shorthand for what grace is – “mercy, not merit.” Grace is the opposite of karma, which is all about getting what you deserve. Grace is getting what you don’t deserve, and notgetting what you do deserve. Christianity teaches that what we deserve is death with no hope of resurrection.

True love is unconditional and God has shown himself to possess this attribute by giving us grace.

No matter the evil you think or feel you have commited God is willing to forgive you and that is true love.
