Selected
חסד האל או האלוהים - חסד
It seems like the term used for christianism.
Example sentence:
בזכות חסד האל, ניתן לאדם למלא את רצונו. עקרון החסד ביטל את הצורך בתיווך הכנסייה בקשר בין אדם לאלוהיו.

I have no idea of the interpretation given to this concept in Christianity, maybe they do translate it as חסד which means "kindness" or "charity" in Hebrew. "חנון" expresses G-d's unlimited giving.

: But you can't ignore that this word has negative connotations in modern Hebrew - it means "nerd"...
