Romans 5:15, "But not as the offence, so also is the free gift. For if through the offence of one many be dead, much more the grace of God, and the gift by grace, which is by one man, Jesus Christ, hath abounded unto many."
Saving Grace is Offered to All of Mankind
Titus 2:11. God’s saving grace is offered to all men because of God’s love for all of mankind. Jesus came on this Earth to save mankind, not to condemn us. Our eternal salvation can only come through God’s grace. Not by chance or luck or fate or of our own will. By accepting Jesus as our Lord and Savior we can enjoy God’s grace that is offered to all mankind (Titus 2:11, “For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men,”).

God’s Love is Unconditional But Saving Grace Is Justified by Our Faith
Romans 5:2. Unlike God’s love, God’s grace is conditional. On the other hand just like love, God offers grace to everyone. The difference between God’s love and saving grace is that grace is only given to ones that have faith in Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior. Through their faith, Christians can rejoice because of the grace God has given to them (Romans 5:2, “ By whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God”). Saving grace is justification by faith. Through God’s grace our relationship with God is restored for eternity.

Saving Grace Comes From Our Faith in Jesus Christ
Romans 1:5. Faith is the cornerstone to receiving God’s saving grace. Our faith and love of Jesus Christ brings God’s grace. Our faith and love in Jesus Christ also brings our willing obedience to serve God. God’s unmerited love, as expressed through Jesus Christ, births a faith in us that enables us to receive God’s saving grace. Just like a loving son, our renewed relationship with our Father strengthens our love for Him where we will willingly do anything in His name and in obedience to Him (Romans 1:5, “By whom we have received grace and apostleship, for obedience to the faith among all nations, for his name:”).

Saving Grace Is Justified By Our Faith and Not By Our Works
Ephesians 2:8. Unless you totally believe that there is no after-life, all people have a desire to go to Heaven and live forever. Because of God’s love for all of mankind He has offered us a free gift of salvation through Jesus Christ. If through faith we accept Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior, we can receive God’s grace of eternal life. This is the only way that any person can have a relationship with God and eternal life. We cannot have God’s saving grace through our good works or being a pretty good person. God’s grace only comes through Jesus Christ (Ephesians 2:8, “For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:“).
EPHESIANS 2 BIBLE SCRIPTURE Ephesians 2:8, "For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:“
