Once again we have a RC who apparently has not read Ephesians 1 and 2. Grace is a free gift, given according to God’s discretion.

Grace is not earned nor merited or it would not be a free gift. It would be recompense and God would owe you salvation. And God is beholden to no one.

Read Ephesians and Romans. RCs struggle all day long to earn what God gives freely. RCs are not being told the truth. Read the bible for yourself.

I actually have read Ephesians.

I never said that grace is not a free gift from God. It is.

But once that gift is received you must use it, not sit on it.
