We are able to persevere only because God works within us, within our free wills. And because God is at work in us, we are certain to persevere. The decrees of God concerning election are immutable.

When there’s something in the Word of God that I don’t like, the problem is not with the Word of God, it’s with me.

The grounds of your justification are the perfect works of Jesus Christ. We're saved by works, but they're not our own.
