***Common grace***

Wouldn't common grace make us all commonly good?

I don't think common grace can account for...

"...Your prayers and your alms have ascended as a memorial before God."

Do you?

No, "only God is good". Common grace are those graces that prevent men from being utterly depraved.

No, but general (creational) Revelation does. (Psalm 19, 24; Romans 1)
