Grace - What it Is, How We Get It, and How We 'Cheapen' It When We take Advantage of It.

How man defines and uses Grace is not akin to how God defines and uses it in His Word towards human beings, which is precisely why grace is commonly misunderstood or taken advantage of. 

The grace that man gives is conditional, unpredictable, and selective. God's grace is the reason that everyone—both Christians and non-Christians are able to receive the blessing of life, and why a depraved world enjoys so much favor and kindness at the hands of a holy God.  It's a gift that He gives freely and without merit so that no one, no matter who you are can lay claim to it because of something that he or she has done. Grace is available to everyone, its a beautiful truth that God gives to us.
