Then there is regenerating grace, the grace that allows a man to receive the Holy Ghost and be regenerated. Then there is persevering grace, the grace that continues to call a man to deeper levels of holiness, to overcome sin, and to keep the faith.
It is by grace, and grace alone, that we are saved.

Thank you for your response. While I understand the concept you propose here, I'm generally not one to go where scripture does not go. I'm going to have to stick with the one grace, which has appeared to all men.
