The Interpersonal Nature of Grace
God's creation of humanity encompasses both spiritual and physical dimensions, highlighting the importance of social interactions in religious experiences. This duality is crucial for understanding how God communicates grace through human relationships. The incarnation of Jesus Christ exemplifies this notion, as God's direct involvement in human affairs serves as a means of lifting humanity through physical and interpersonal means. The sacraments represent this dynamic interaction, functioning as vital channels through which God conveys grace and salvation in a communal context.
