Means of Grace

[jmark]

Hi there,

I'm doing some work on the means of grace. I'm puzzled as to why the benediction isn't usually considered a means of grace, either presently or historically. Anyone shed any light on this?

Might it be because it comes under the ministry of the word?

Bruce,

Thanks for the link. I had perused it earlier. Thats a good overview.

Looking for something a little more specific on the benediction though

Sorry about the signature, duly updated!
