Very misc related to grace

[Markekohut]

Almost absolute disagreement....TRP consciously,creatively gave us his, his visionary meanings of grace.....they relate to anti-Calvinism fer sure.....it is MAJOR in the scenic first use with Lew.....

IT ENDS THE BOOK RESONANTLY. Not lazy and not recycled in that use in AtD. 

of course, it folds in many meanings...again, like Shakespeare, Eliot or other great writers
---i am taken With possible uses/meanings etc. that went deep in TRP---I posted a possible Hemingway--grace under pressure--twist recently. 

and, yesterday, a Church-going adult cAtholic reminded me of the doctrine of 'state of grace'.
