John 1: 14 And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, full of grace and truth; we have beheld his glory, glory as of the only Son from the Father. (Jesus is "full of grace".) and: Acts 6: 8 And Stephen, full of grace and power, did great wonders and signs among the people.

Can I be the first to tell you that "full of Grace" doesn't mean the same thing when it pertains to Stephen. I can't explain why, I just wanted to be the first one to tell you. :-)

It all goes back to that tree of knowledge thing, Eve said, God told us not eat of this tree Satan, Satan said, God didn't really mean that He meant this..... :)

How right you are. See #1537, dignan3. Sadly, I don't give a damn what St. Jerome says, I don't care what dignan3 says, I just care what Scripture says.

Incidentally, modern RCC "approved" Bibles don't even use the term "full of grace" in regards to Mary. But, what the hell do they know.
