Sacraments enhance our beliefs and our lives, THEY DO NOT GIVE US GRACE.

Salvation is of the Lord alone, according to His ordained will from before the foundation of the world, based solely upon His good counsel and nothing within ourselves.

Or else it's salvation by the work of man, and not of God alone.

Rome/Geneva.

Monergism/synergism.

They do!

How can they enhance your beliefs when it is God that gives you faith.

Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and thou shalt be saved-Bible.

P.S. faith is not a work. (Rom.4:4-5)
