From the very beginning, right up until the coming of Jesus, Grace has been God’s plan. Sin has riddled us, and seeks to drive us far away from God. And our natural bent is to “make up” the difference for our shortcoming by working hard at getting better. We’ll join a religion, and try to “look” better, or be better, but in the end, it all falls short. Nothing helps this guilty conscience of ours. But God, because He is love, Graced man with an alternative to his works - His Son – and we have to do nothing to earn His pleasure and satisfaction. Grace Works. And He is pleased to tell you – there is nothing else you have to do, all the work is done.
