With due respect. You have a lot to learn about what grace means. I have to run.,

Actually I think you may be the one that needs to learn what grace is..it is not like gas that we have to put in the tank.. we can not earn grace .. by definition grace is getting what we do not deserve deserve

Justice is what we deserve

Mercy is not getting what we deserve

The minute you can earn it it ceases to be grace

Unlike catholics..I do not need a private revelation or one from peters seat.. I have the final revelation of God in His word.. read it my friend

>>Grace is freely given, but we have to cooperate with it.

Salvation is synergistic. Merit and legal terms have no place in my theology, so I wait patiently on the Lord. Whether God looks favorably on my works or not depends on my heart.

Look up the word synergos in the Greek.

I’m not OWED anything. It’s not the good works that I am worried about.

Wherefore, brethren, labour the more, that by good works you may make sure your calling and election. For doing these things, you shall not sin at any time. 2 Peter 1:10
