To Calvinism, sinful man stands in need, not of inducements or assistance to save himself; but precisely of saving; and Jesus Christ has come not to advise, or urge, or woo, or help him to save himself; but to save him; to save him through the prevalent working on him of the Holy Spirit.

And how does that differ from Arminianism?

Arminianism would claim that a man must still cooperate with God to be saved, whereas Calvinism claims that God will make that man cooperate.

(Wouldn't you agree, Steve?)
