What does the Bible say about God's grace for the sake of Christ?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible teaches that God's grace is offered to sinners for the sake of Jesus Christ, reflecting His covenant promises.

The grace that saves sinners comes not because of any merit on their part but solely for the sake of Jesus Christ. Just as King David sought to show kindness to Mephibosheth for Jonathan's sake, God the Father shows mercy to His chosen people for the sake of His Son. This is a representation of the covenant relationship between God and Christ, where Christ fulfills all requirements to secure redemption for God's elect. Ephesians 4:32 emphasizes this principle, stating that we are forgiven 'for Christ's sake.' Thus, the salvation experience is rooted in the grace offered through Christ's obedience and sacrifice.
