I'm reading again Alister McGrath's history of justification. I get confused with the terminology applied in the distinctions of grace. Like for example:
-created/uncreated grace
-infused grace
-actual/habitual grace
-sanctifying grace
I'm not sure if there are only two distinctions described by various terms or if those distinctions all describes various different dispositions, states or operations of grace?
I hope that somebody could explain to me these technicalities more precisely. I come across that terminology also in other works of historical theology and it seems to me that the authors always assume that the reader knows those differences exactly or explain it with other vague terms.
