" And grace is a little New Testament shorthand word for the miracle of God’s mercy in Jesus Christ. Grace has a name, the name of Jesus; he is grace, embodied and acted out: “For the grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation for all people” (Titus 2:11). To say that we are under grace is to say that the final truth of our lives, the final authority by which we are made and judged, is Jesus Christ the mercy of God. "
