How does the name of Jesus relate to the concept of grace?

Answered in 1 source

The name of Jesus encapsulates the grace of God, providing salvation and fullness through faith in Him.

The name of Jesus is the means through which God's grace is made manifest to humanity. His sacrificial death and resurrection allow believers to experience God's unmerited favor. In Acts 4:12, it is emphasized that salvation cannot be achieved through one's efforts but only through faith in Jesus. This aligns with the historic Reformed understanding that grace is irresistible and pivotal for salvation. Believing in the name of Jesus signifies acknowledging His grace, which transforms and regenerates the sinner, offering eternal life and fellowship with God.
