To understand how grace works study Paul's conversion experience in Acts 9. See if you can find the "business arrangement" you talk about in that chapter.

My bible-reading days are far behind me. There was so much violence depicted there that I thought I was reading the Quran. The biblical God speaks of "grace" with one breath...and with the NEXT breath, he instructs his followers to "bash the skulls of the infants against the rocks". If I want horror...I'd rather pick up a Stephen King novel.
