Jesus, Co-Source of Grace
Commentators emphasize that by naming 'God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ' together as the source of grace and peace, Paul makes a powerful theological statement. This places Jesus on par with the Father, affirming His full deity. Grace and peace are not just from God in general, but specifically from the Father and the Son, who are presented as the joint fountainhead of these divine gifts.
