It will always be difficult for our sinful flesh to truly understand grace. In terms of salvation, Jesus plainly tells us that it is something received on our part. We can’t earn it, purchase it, or trade for it. Grace is hard to swallow because it forces you and me to give full credit and glory to God. If there is ANY room for us to boast then we are not speaking of Biblical salvation.
