G R A C E

Divine grace is the free and undeserved love and favor of God towards ME as a sinner, especially as exhibited in the plan of redemption through Jesus Christ, (John 1:17 3:16 Romans 3:24-26.)
It is only by the free grace of god that we embrace the offers of mercy, and appropriate to ourselves the blessings graciously purchased by redeeming blood.

The "GRACE OF GOD," spontaneous, unmerited, self-directed, and almighty, is the source of the whole scheme of redemption, (Romans 11:6 2 Timothy 1:9.)
In Galatians 5:4, "grace" means God’s plan of salvation by his mercy,
NOT BY OUR WORKS!
