The Bible shows that God's grace is a free gift, not earned by works, illustrating His mercy towards sinners through various biblical accounts.
God's free grace is foundational to our understanding of salvation in Scripture. It is God’s unmerited favor bestowed on sinners who are utterly undeserving. Various accounts in the Bible illustrate this theme, such as David’s kindness to Mephibosheth, where Mephibosheth, despite being a potential enemy of the king, was spared and shown kindness for the sake of Jonathan. This reflects how God shows mercy and grace to those who are spiritually lame and lost, calling them to Himself and redeeming them not based on their merit but solely on His covenant promises and love (2 Samuel 9:1-13).
