Sadly, not the same word in the Greek.

Not so sad, Kenobi.

You will find if you read more of that book JEROME WROTE (LOL) that those who stand before God in a blameless fashion in His fulness are also experiencing full grace.

Those who parse might have issues with these truths...but this is exactly what Christ has done for us.

Ah, well...I see you are not a serious debator on some things or perhaps it is late for you and you are not operating on full steam, but I'm done here. Go in God's fullness...whether you believe that means forgiveness, blamelessness, or grace!

Aware of that passage, which is why I’m trying to explain to you that the word which gets parsed out as ‘full of grace’ is not the same word as that which you are referring to here.

But carry on. Words that are different all mean the same thing... Some of us are concerned that different Greek words are conflated together in English, when there is a concrete difference between them. Sometimes it’s because English lacks the distinction.

I can love you and love books, but I don’t mean to have sex with the binding.
