Greetings,
One of the main differences between Biblical Christianity and most other faith systems is that we believe that we are saved through God’s goodness/lovingkindness (grace) and not by anything that we ourselves do.
Of course, we also believe that this grace will inevitably bring us to do good things and live good lives, but these things in themselves aren’t enough to save us from God's anger at the bad things we have all done.
Many thanks,
Simon
PS I wish to know the usual word for grace, which may be of Arabic origin; however, I shall be most interested if there is also a word of Persian origin for "grace".

فضل / رحمت / بخشش
There are two common Arabic words used to refer to this grace:
فضل الهی
رحمت الهی
However, we also have a completely persian word بخشش, which is also used to convey the meaning of forgiveness.

There's a very common Arabic praise for God, which uses فضل in contrast to عدل:
الهنا عاملنا به فضلک و لا تعاملنا بعدلک یا کریم
It means:
O' Generous, judge us by your grace and do not judge us by your justice.
Please note that فضل and عدل here contribute to the rhyme of the line.
