| Why the Watchtower talks about the grace as " undeserving kindness" and... ...yet they teach? this God's undeserving kindess is going to those who deserve it?? "We want to give deserving ones the opportunity to learn of Jehovah's undeserved kindness and the kingdom hope" -Our Kingdom Ministry, December 1993, page 7 |

| The grace of God has been defined as '' God's unmerited favour.'' The fact that God is gracious is presented in Peter's statement, ''The God of all grace, who hath called us unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while make you perfect, stablish, strengthen, settle you'' [ 1Peter 5:10 ] This grace was manifested by our Lord Jesus Christ and in our salvation [ John 1:17; Titus 2:11 ]. We grasp more of the meaning of grace when we read Hwbrews 2:9: '' we see Jesus, who was made a little liwer than the angels for the suffering of death, crowned with glory and honour; that He by grace the grace of God should taste death for every man.'' |

| I look at it this way-i'm not a JW btw- I guess you can compare that logic to a teacher who at the very first day of school told the whole class, 'everybody gets an A'. Afterall, the teacher is being kind to the children. If all children already received an A from the gettgo, what is the point of the teacher teaching the class? and what would be the point of the children doing their homework or listening in class if they already have the A? See, the teacher gave the children the opportunity for all of them to have that A and yet she continues to teach in hopes that these children can keep that A by their performance or by their hard work shown in class. In my opinion, and i am sorry if this whole logic thing does not make any sense- it's the same with God. He gave us all a chance to have everlasting life but it is up to us to keep that chance he gave. RIGHT?? NO? WRONG? oh well. this is my opinion. a JW may have a whole different explanation or logic hehe |
