What does the Bible say about the doctrine of grace?

Answered in 2 sources

The Bible teaches that grace is God's unmerited favor toward sinners, granted through Christ before the world began.

The Bible emphasizes the doctrine of grace primarily in passages such as 2 Timothy 1:9, where it states that God 'hath saved us and called us... according to his own purpose and grace.' This highlights the sovereignty of God in salvation, underscoring that our salvation is not based on our works but entirely on God's grace bestowed in Christ Jesus. This doctrine serves to strip away human pride, elevate the work of Christ, and provide assurance to believers. In essence, the grace of God is the foundation for not only salvation but also for the believer’s spiritual growth and perseverance in faith.
