Separating 'grace' & 'mercy'!

A simple but accurate separation is:

Grace is receiving a betterment not owed to you.

BUT:

Mercy is not receiving a punishment owed to you.

To explore 'grace' just a tad further, it is the:

  • engine to forgive another
  • absence of rights
  • separation of Christianity from every other form of faith
  • washing of your betrayer's feet
  • permission to put away guilt, shame, condemnation, judgement, and so much more
  • generosity that doesn't find fault.

Stand firm in grace.

The Last Word:

Grace and truth comes through the Jesus the Christ. (John 1:17b)
