gracegrace| In Christianity and Sikhism, a free or unmerited gift or privilege bestowed by God, whose favour, or revealing of himself, cannot be earned or attained by human efforts. In Christian thinking, grace also stands for God's presence in human history. In the Orthodox Church it refers to human participation in the divine life, whereas the Western church understands it more in terms of the power to heal humanity from its defects. |

‘Mool Mantra’274Abbott, Graceacciaccaturaaddress, forms ofAglaiaAlbert II, Crown PrinceantinomianismappoggiaturaAske, RobertAtwood, Margaret EleanorBallycastleBarth, KarlBeaumont, FrancisBumbry, GraceBupaluscallisthenicscanonizationCanova, Antonio, Marquese d'Ischia | The persons are, Captain Arnault, of the French army; Surgeon Surville, of the French ambulance; Surgeon Wetzel, of the German army; Mercy Merrick, attached as nurse to the French ambulance; and Grace Roseberry, a traveling lady on her way to England. I may tell you, however, that his Grace has already intimated that a check for five thousand pounds will be handed over to the person who can tell him where his son is, and another thousand to him who can name the man or men who have taken him. And when I mention honour, I mean that mode of Divine grace which is not only consistent with, but dependent upon, this religion; and is consistent with and dependent upon no other. |
