No. Grace is by definition undeserved. We don't need to "ponder the meaning of 'undeserving.'" You need to ponder some scripture.

Actually, it is interesting how you never offer any verse to back up your assertions. You just sort of make assertions.

Try this one: "There is none righteous, no, not one." Know where that's from?

Perhaps you should have a talk with your pastor. If he says anything that would even slightly suggest that the words "salvation" and "deserving" belong in the same sentence, I would like to have a conversation with him.
