Just a general question that hit me the other day.
Are means of Grace primarily from the direction of heaven to earth rather than "earth to heaven"? That is if done properly are they to emphasize grace to us and be emphasized as grace to us, rather than our "obedience" in performing/taking hold of them?
And is this why the Reformed/Lutheran Confessionals identify two Word and Sacraments?
