I always believed salvation was monergistic. What we argued over was whether faith, being a gift, was an act of human volition.

You're quoting Whitefield?!?

Be still my heart.

As for human volition, I was reading Jeremiah the other day...

"The word which came to Jeremiah from the LORD, saying,

Arise, and go down to the potter's house, and there I will cause thee to hear my words." -- Jeremiah 18:1-2

We're all deaf unless He "causes us to hear."
