Experiencing Grace

Contributed by T.j. Conwell on Nov 15, 2016

The Grace Of God

Contributed by Sam Mccormick on Aug 14, 2017

God's grace as the avenue of salvation is sometimes seen as being in conflict with obedience of the believer as a requirement, without which salvation cannot be obtained. Which is it, or is it a combination? Can this dichotomy be satisfactorily resolved?
