[QUOTE="rickyb, post: 4752162, member: 56035"] According to the Bible, is this really grace? The answer is NO! Grace is [I]undeserved[/I] favor; it is God’s blessing on the [I]unworthy[/I]. In the example above, the father bestowed his favor because he felt his son’s efforts should be rewarded—the father’s gift was based on a genuine effort by the son and was therefore not true grace. Jesus illustrated true grace with the [URL='https://www.gotquestions.org/parable-prodigal-son.html']story[/URL] of a father who received his runaway son with celebratory joy—a totally unworthy individual who brought nothing to his father except dishonor and shame was lavished with undeserved blessings ([URL='https://biblia.com/bible/esv/Luke%2015.11%E2%80%9324']Luke 15:11–24[/URL]).
