What does the Bible say about the experience of grace?

Answered in 3 sources

The experience of grace is foundational to salvation, as seen in Isaiah's vision of God and the transformative power of encountering His holiness.

The Bible portrays experiencing grace as a profound and life-altering encounter with God, where one recognizes their own sinfulness and the holiness of God. Isaiah's vision in Isaiah 6 exemplifies this; upon seeing the Lord high and lifted up, he cried out, 'Woe is me, for I am undone!' This encapsulates the essence of realizing one's need for grace. Every individual elected by God has an experience of grace, evidenced in their life choices that align with God’s calling, akin to Noah preparing the ark or Abraham responding to the call of God without knowing his destination. Such experiences signify not just emotional responses but deep spiritual transformations driven by God's sovereign grace.
