That is not to raise election or predestination v free will - but rather, who or Who is responsible for the good that is done in the life of a Christian? I take the latter view all credit goes to God because apart from Him we can do nothing (John 15).

Amen, and thanks for the ping. I actually would go so far as to say this is related to election. My understanding of Roman Catholicism is that men make the final free will decision on accepting Christ [who], whereas Calvinists believe that God has already made the final decision on His elect [Who].
