“To suppose thatwhatever God requireth of us that we have power of ourselves to do, is to make the cross and grace of Jesus Christ of none effect.” -John Owen
"...if anyone makes the assistance of grace depend on the humility or obedience of man and does not agree that it is a gift of grace itself that we are obedient and humble, he contradicts the Apostle who says, "What have you that you did not receive?" (1 Cor. 4:7), and, "But by the grace of God I am what I am" (1 Cor. 15:10). (Council of Orange: Canon 6)
