[Dr. Eckleburg]

I challenge anyone to identify a verse of scripture that says believing or receiving is a work.

"Remembering without ceasing your work of faith, and labour of love, and patience of hope in our Lord Jesus Christ, in the sight of God and our Father;

Knowing, brethren beloved, your election of God." -- 1 Thessalonians 1:3-4

Graces saves. Trinitarian faith in Jesus Christ is the instrument with which God chooses to dispense His grace.
