I totally agree I won't call the Christians who think that grace is unmerited favor false Christians. It strengthens us to overcome the power of sin not endorses it. Or unmerited act(or power) of God on our behalf. Otherwise we will be guilty of what the bible said. The result of this is that one will see Grace as act to which you have no responsibility!.īut Grace is an act of God to which we have no responsibility as to how it came about but we do have a responsibility to apply it to our lives 'costless costless' this is not merely repetitive it Negates! The true meaning and it renders null or void. So God Grace is a FAVOR! ( unmerited, undeserved act from God to man) That is, the meaning of that word is lost or reduced to zero (0)!. Why use them together to modify themselves ? When we use repetitive words to modify another similar word, the effect is NEGATION. Or another common phrase like 'still yet'. A short is short and A kneeker is A kneeker! ( pardon my spelling of kneeker) Its like saying a common mud used phrase like. 'unmerited favor will mean or attempted to do.And that has a serious negation effect. So why say then 'unmerited unmerited'? That is what the phrase. The phrase 'unmerited favor' is semantically wrong English.įavor is unmerited, by meaning that is 'what is not deserved' which by implication has transformed into misapplication was simply a wrong use of language. Very good discussion, God bless us all in Jesus name amen. So, just request it from me at canawedding at aol dot com, anne robare. Well, due to space limitations, i cannot add what i wanted to. Who are the false Christians, heretics, anti-Christs? The following reveals who they are.

The false Christians, heretics, anti-Christs will most certainly hear these Words from the real Lord Jesus Christ. Multitudes of so-called Christians think they worship the real Lord Jesus Christ but they will hear Him say, to their horror when it is too late, that He never knew them, Mt 7:21-23. Multitudes, who call themselves Christians, have never obeyed the real Lord Jesus Christ's command in Mt 6:33a and, therefore, multitudes of so-called Christians have never gone through the narrow Gate to travel on the narrow Road to eternal Life in God's Glory.

So, what are the multitudes going to do who have falsely interpreted this Scripture along with many others? And, in plain sight, we have God's definition of Grace in 2Co 12:9, why haven't they seen it? Here is why: Instead, we have the Greek words Chariti and Charitos, words that should never have been translated into Grace. In Eph 2, Scripture that false Christians love to quote, you will never find the Greek word Charis because it isn't there. The Father's 'unmerited favor' was never upon His Perfect, Holy and Righteous Son! The Father's favor was alway merited! So, yes, all who think Grace is unmerited favor are false Christians because all true Christians, who have our anointing from the Holy One that teaches us, will know the Truth that sets us free, not stumble on the letter that kills, Jn 8 2Co 3 1Jn 2. The first time we see the word Charis in the NT is in Lk 2:40. The only Greek word that should have been translated into the English word Grace is Charis. Please note that grace, as presented above, while it was made available for all, it is only given if we asked for it (James 4:6,8). There is no need to triple emphasis by saying grace is an unmerited favor. Paul had already doubly emphasized that Grace was not from us (1st) and it was a gift (2nd) from God. The grace power is a gift, the unmerited, for us from God. Grace is God's power that comes from God and not of ourselves.Eph 2:8 For by grace are ye saved through faith and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:.But if it is of works, then is it no more : otherwise work is no more work. Rom 11:6 And if by grace, then is it no more of works: otherwise grace is no more.

Rom 11:6 And if by grace, then is it no more of works: otherwise grace is no more grace.

Let's compare, which definition gives better emphasis
