The author does not pretend to ‘know it all’ in this fundamental, in-depth study of God’s grace, but seeks to ‘open the door’ for further study into the many ways God’s grace is intended to be applied. Grace operates not only in salvation, but also throughout the Christian’s life in general, bringing confidence and joy to the Christian. Grace allows room for differences in opinions, change, and growth over time. As the author says, “The secret of grace is in its growth.”

“Balance” has long been the missing dimension, in this and other Bible subjects. The author asks, “Why do we always seem to go to the extreme?” Why are preachers fired because they preach on grace? Why must sermons on this subject have five minutes on grace and 25 minutes on obedience? Why are so many Christians in doubt as to their own salvation and hope of heaven?

The author tells of the time, when after he presented a lesson on “Amazing Grace,” an elderly member of the congregation came to him and said, “I just cannot agree with you on what you said about God’s grace.” He asked, “What is it you don’t agree with?” She then said, “I just can’t agree! Brother Jack, every day when I get up till the time I go to bed in the evening, I repeat in my mind, “Forgive me Lord,” “Forgive me Lord,” “Forgive me Lord.” This is not a life of confidence in God’s grace, and it reveals a fundamental misunderstanding of this marvelous subject. The “tight-rope,” “Yo-Yo,” (you’re in, you’re out) concept of Christianity is disheartening at best, and absolutely wrong in the end. What is needed is Biblical BALANCE.

As Dad said, “This is a simple, yet profound study of God, His love and mercy toward man, seen in redemption, and how grace is God’s power in the Christian to enable GROWTH!”
