Grace vs Kindness

When Paul told the people in Ephesus that we are saved by grace through faith what does grace mean? The grace of God is kindness of God. God did not have to reconcile us with himself but because of his kindness he reconciles us to himself if we have faith that God exists and rewards those who diligently seek him.

 

Jesus is the expression of God's grace but what is the definition of grace other than the kindness of God. The word grace means nothing until you know the definition. Jesus is the expression of God's kindness. God did not have to do that but because of his kindness he did. If we ever get to real definitions it will be easier for people to understand the difference between faith, kindness, etc. Much like the word baptism which is a horrible word because it means whatever an individual wants it to me. The definition is immerse or immersion and that cannot easily be used to define sprinkling or pouring. God's kindness is not something separate from God. We are saved by our belief that God exists and that he rewards people who diligently seek him because he is kind enough to provide a way.
