Grace Comes As A Gift

From God (Ephesians 2:8 and I Peter 5:10)
Ephesians 2:8
8   God saved you by his grace when you believed. And you can’t take credit for this; it is a gift from God.
I Peter 5:10
10  And the God of all grace, who called you to his eternal glory in Christ, after you have suffered a little while, will himself restore you and make you strong, firm and steadfast.

From the Father (Psalms 84:11 and James 1:17)
Psalms 84:11
11  For the Lord God is our sun and our shield.  He gives us grace and glory.  The Lord will withhold no good thing from those who do what is right.
James 1:17
17  Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows.

From Christ, the Son (John 1:17 and I Corinthians 1:4)
John 1:17
17  For the law was given through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.
I Corinthians 1:4
4    I always thank my God for you because of his grace given you in Christ Jesus.

From the Holy Spirit (Zechariah 12:10 and Hebrews 10:29)
Zechariah 12:10
10  “And I will pour out on the house of David and the inhabitants of Jerusalem a spirit of grace and supplication. They will look on me, the one they have pierced, and they will mourn for him as one mourns for an only child, and grieve bitterly for him as one grieves for a firstborn son.
Hebrews 10:29
29  How much more severely do you think someone deserves to be punished who has trampled the Son of God underfoot, who has treated as an unholy thing the blood of the covenant that sanctified them, and who has insulted the Spirit of grace?
