“...if anyone makes the assistance of grace depend on the humility or obedience of man and does not agree that it is a gift of grace itself that we are obedient and humble, he contradicts the Apostle who says, “What have you that you did not receive?” (1 Cor. 4:7), and, “But by the grace of God I am what I am” (1 Cor. 15:10). (Council of Orange: Canon 6)

I have no disagreement, without the grace of Christ and God, I am nothing, but if I don’t accept that grace, and accepting it is a work that I have to do, then I am still nothing.
