Bible Questions Episode 249 (Grace)

One of the most important, wonderful, and misunderstood topics in Christianity is that of grace, especially God’s grace extended to sinful humanity. This includes controversies over:

• Will God save everyone (“universalism”)
• Will God arbitrarily save a select few (“predestination”)
• Do we need to do anything initially to receive God’s grace and be forgiven of our sins (“plan of salvation” and “faith only”)?
• Do we need to do anything afterwards to continue to be forgiven (“once saved, always saved”, “salvation by works”)?

In this episode, we will answer questions submitted over the years about Grace.
