Re: If salvation is "solely by grace," why are not all people saved since Read Titus
Yeah as a above... Jesus didn't automatically save everyone the moment He died for our sins. He offers the free gift of salvation to all who receive Him.
John 3:16
(Joh 3:16) For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
The bad news is that everyone is headed to eternal seperation without God if they don't believe in Jesus. The good news is that it so very very simple to believe in Jesus and have everlasting life!

Today's people's hanging on that word grace, but they do not really follow the Lord Jesus, like we may see also in this forum, that people's do speak like that they are follower of the Lord, but the truth is something else.
Do not deceive your selves.

It's so simple that people have a hard time ACCEPTING it. Human pride will not allow such people to believe in Jesus and have everlasting life. Their hands are full of their works and they will not let go in order to take hold of Christ through faith.

Salvation by grace through "FAITH" is the "condition" (NOT conditions/works) that most will not meet because their hands are full of their works and they WILL NOT LET GO in order to take hold of Christ through FAITH.

One can receive grace unconditionally without repenting, Lk 13:3,5; confessing, Mt 10:32,33, Rom 10:32;33; being baptized, Acts 2:38; Mk16;16??
If there are no conditions then the OP by "Preacher" has a point. If grace is UNconditional then ALL men will be saved.

Titus 2:11 For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men.
It has appeared but men haven't believed.
Hebrews 4:2-3
[SUP]2 [/SUP]For unto us was the gospel preached, as well as unto them: but the word preached did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in them that heard it.
[SUP]3 [/SUP]For we which have believed do enter into rest, as he said, As I have sworn in my wrath, if they shall enter into my rest: although the works were finished from the foundation of the world.
2 Corinthians 4:4 [SUP] [/SUP]In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.
It looks like the condition is believing.
John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
Ephesians 2:8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:
