(6:23,24) Note that "faith" is from "God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ." This is an important statement. "Peace and love" are declared to be their due as saints. "Peace" is their standing before God the Father in the Son. There is no more any animosity between the Father and the believer. "Love" is the substance of what they are, for "in Christ" we are joined to Him who is love. "Grace" is the summation of God's provision for all who love the Lord Jesus Christ and are found in Him on the ground of peace.
