So our works cannot be grace, or grace is not grace. You see, it is very simple, if we love truth. Grace is the incorruptible works of God, in other words, it does not come from below from our earth, nor any of the works of our earth found in mankind. Grace comes down to us from above from an incorruptible God of love, as a free gift. Mankind has nothing to do with God's perfect works of grace, it is not their or a religion, nor a government, it is God's idea, his plan and his perfect works in a free gift to mankind.
John 1:14 The Word became flesh, and lived among us. We saw his glory, such glory as of the one and only Son of the Father, full of grace and truth.
Rom.9:11 For being not yet born, neither having done anything good or bad, that the purpose of God according to election might stand, not of works, but of him who calls.
Rom. 9:16 So then it is not of him who wills, nor of him who runs, but of God who has mercy. Ephesians 2:8 for by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God.
