| Summary: | This article revisits the different historical interpretations of the Pauline concept of grace. It describes the relationship between grace and justice and claims, based on Paul's letter to the Romans that grace, rather than being understood as the suspension of divine justice, is its alternative form. God's justice is a vindication of God's creation and human life, and grace aims for the same goal. The article examines the productive nature of this notion as a practice of freedom in politics and as a critique of free market economy. |
