Have you ever considered that almost all the New Testament letters open with the greeting, “Grace to you and peace”, or some variation thereof? Is it just a cultural reflex, the greeting of the day, like the habit of signing off emails with “blessings” or some such spiritual-sounding remark. Or …is it something we should notice? Well, of course, that’s a rhetorical question. We are talking about the word of God. Every word, every thought, inspired by the Holy Spirit; every word-- holy words of life.
