The Grace of God, the Capital G of Grace

When we hear the New Testament speak about the grace of God, we're talking about a concrete thing, a concrete gift that's given. And so it's Jesus giving Himself and the Father giving the world His own Son that is the capital G grace or gift from which all of the grace is that we receive for our sanctification,. The idea of the gift and who is worthy to receive that gift emerges as essential as a crucial theme in this epistle.
