If you are looking for the exact words of your question, they are found in Ephesians 2:8-10. However, there are many other writings that speak to grace. In fact, globally speaking, the whole of the New Testament tells us of God's grace to mankind by the birth of His son as a human.

It was Jesus who paid for all sin! Another way of saying this is He purchased sin - buying it with His life and blood. Therefore, He owns sin's penalty which is death. So He has the right to forgive sin and its penalty. Jesus also has the right, the authority, to set the conditions for forgiveness and the removal of the penalty. This He has done, according to His Father's will, through grace!

Is the grace cocerning indivisual salvation in the New Testament a totally new development?

In the New Testament the word Grace means - undeserved favour, unmerited favour with the word "undeserved" being the qualifying factor.We are saved by "grace" (undeserved favour) when our sins really deserve death - "for the wages of sin are death" (Romans 6:23) but God shows His loving "grace" to us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us in our place. When a person is "saved", their salvation is by grace, (undeserved favour) through faith - Eph. 2:8.In the Old Testament, grace takes on a different perspective. Here the word grace implies - favour, kindness, beauty, affectionate regard, to act mercifully toward someone, to be compassionate, to be favourably inclined.Psalm 84:11 says "For the Lord is a sun and shield, the Lord will give grace (to be favourably inclined) and glory: No good thing will He behold from those who walk uprightly."A futurist example is found in Zechariah 12:10 where God states - "I will pour on the house of David and the people of Jerusalem the Spirit of grace........". (undeserved favour). This refers to a future time when God's grace (undeserved favour) will again be "poured" out on Israel's inhabitants. Here the Holy Spirit is called "the Spirit of grace".So we could summarise as1. Grace as an "undeserved favour" is found thoughout the New Testament and applies for these believers under Jesus.2. Grace, in the O.T applies to mercy, favour, compassion, etc. over His people.Therefore the use of the word Grace is a new development only in its context as undeserved favour through Jesus gift of salvation as scripture points out that salvation is by grace in Eph. 2:8.
