The name “God of all grace” highlights God grace toward humankind. The Greek word charitos is full of meaning. It includes not only the idea of God’s unmerited favor but also His love and mercy. God was under no obligation to show mercy or favor to people; He chose to do so purely out of love and He never gives it grudgingly. We can never earn God’s grace, it is a free gift. Grace truly is amazing.
God of all grace in the Greek text of 1 Peter 5:10.
God of all grace in Greek:
