Is Grace a gift or is it earned?

VERSE:

John 1:16

16 From the fullness of his grace we have all received one blessing after another.

LESSON:

In this verse, we are told that from the grace of Jesus "...we have all received one blessing after another...". It is not that we have earned it on our own. It is not that we somehow have worked very hard, and now we deserved it. We have been blessed by Jesus "...from the fullness of his grace...". His grace alone.
