We seem to have different viewpoints to ‘grace’. For some reason, the word ‘grace’ is associated with conditions (requirements) in the NT. I would compare it to getting a gift: you do not earn the gift (that would make the gift a salary) but you need to receive it to get it. Salvation is not forced on you, it is offered.
I could pick many verses from the NT to support my claim but I am interested of the passages that seem to refute my claim. Do you have any?
