What does full of grace mean in these two verses that makes sense to say of BOTH Stephen and Jesus?

I'm glad you brought this up. Look at the whole quote here:

Acts 6:8 And Stephen, full of grace and power, wrought great wonders and signs among the people.

However you posted it this way:

And Stephen, full of grace and power, wrought great wonders and signs among the people.

Grace and power is not Grace.

(Sorry about the delay. I was busy and coouldn't get back here until now)

Plus, one was the message of God delivered by the Angel Gabriel.

No problem with the delay, the answer is perplexing however,

Grace and power is not Grace.

If you say, "I am hungry and tired" and "I say I am hungry," we are both hungry. This is a very weak argument hardly sufficient to sustain the weight of a claim to Mary's sinlessness.

Plus, one was the message of God delivered by the Angel Gabriel

And the other was the words of Luke written under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit. Again, a weak argument for anyone who believes in the inspiration of the Bible, which I believe you do.
