GRACE - and Salvation

恩典 - 與救恩

Grace is especially associated with men in their sins; mercy is usually associated with men in their misery.

恩典特別與犯罪中的人有關聯;憐憫通常與處於困境中的人有關聯。

The grace of God does not find men fit for salvation, but makes them so.

Augustine

上帝恩典不在尋找配得恩典之人,而是使人配得恩典。

God's grace can save souls without preaching; but all the preaching in the world cannot save souls without God's grace.

Benjamin Beddome

上帝的恩典不需宣講而能拯救失喪靈魂;但人世一切宣講缺少上帝恩典則未能拯救靈魂。

Man does not 'secure' the grace of God; the grace of God 'secures' the activities of man.

Benjamin B. Warfield

人不能「確保」神的恩典;神的恩典「確保」了人的氣息存留。
