| | CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Actual Grace |
 | | Grace (gratia, Charis), in general, is a supernatural gift of God to intellectual creatures (men, angels) for their eternal salvation, whether the latter be furthered and attained through salutary acts or a state of holiness. | | | As the object of these graces is, according to their nature, the spread of the Kingdom of God on earth and the sanctification of men, their possession in itself does not exclude personal unholiness. | | | But there are also merely external graces, which owe their existence to the merits of Christ's redemption -- as the Bible, preaching, the crucifix, the example of Christ. |

| | Ecumenical Review, The: The divine transforming grace |
| | We are in dire need of divine grace to help us to care for the gift of life, to work for peace and reconciliation, to hold fast to the truth of God in Christ, and to be his faithful disciples witnessing to his love and mercy. | | | God did this to show righteousness, because in divine forbearance God had passed over the sins previously committed; it was to prove at the present time that the Lord God is righteous and justifies the one who has faith in Jesus (Rom. | | | There is grace that seeks our spiritual growth by leading us to repentance or raising us up to a higher spiritual level, approaching divine love. |

| | Divine Grace |
| | These scriptural verses reveal to us that we need Divine Grace "which is always the cure of the weak and fulfils what is lacking." Without it we cannot work out our repentance and our return back to our God and Father. | | | We said earlier that Divine Grace is indispensable for the salvation of the sinner. | | | Consequently, both faith and works are needed to show a faith which is real and alive. |

| | Torah As Holiness: Old Testament 'Law' as Response to Divine Grace |
| | Law lived out as response to divine grace was to be Israel’s witness to the world of a God who was willing to enter into personal relationship with human beings. | | | The OT concept of torah as a lifestyle lived out in response to God& grace, encompassing a grounding in God Himself, yet calling for a holy lifestyle as His people in the real life experience of the world, is genuinely a torah of the heart (Deut 6:5-6). | | | Not only is the giving of torah placed against the background of the exodus, its purpose was to call the people to a continual and unique relationship with the God of the exodus, a God who had been experienced as the initiator of the divine-human encounter. |

| | [No title] |
| | It is people, no matter what their religious beliefs or practices may be, who constitute "The People Of God." They have been touched by God, are loved by Him and belong to Him, regardless of what religion they profess or even no religion at all. | | | There are those who still believe that Christ instituted seven channels of His grace, and those who may use the word "sacrament" but no longer believe either in the sacraments as communicators of grace or the Church's authority over the sacraments. | | | Another name for this divine friendship is the possession of sanctifying grace. |

| | Conversion of the Will is the Effect of Divine Grace Inwardly Bestowed by John Calvin |
| | For it is most certain, that where the grace of God reigns, there is also this readiness to obey. | | | It is the privilege of the elect to be regenerated by the Spirit of God, and then placed under his guidance and government. | | | I admit, then, that believers may expect as a blessing from God, that the better the use they make of previous, the larger the supplies they will receive of future grace; but I say that even this use is of the Lord, and that this remuneration is bestowed freely of mere good will. |

| | CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Controversies on Grace |
| | The efficacy of the power to will and to do is peculiar to the efficacious and sufficient grace, that is to say, it is derived neither from the human will nor from the Divine foreknowledge. | | | In the public disputations held before the Holy Father, he was the leader of the Jesuits. | | | Our minds cannot be too thoroughly imbued with the truth of the statement that our present provision of grace is essentially and intrinsically a magnificent economy of prayer. |
