Amen, Nobdysfool!
This one sentence contains everything needed to turn the Arminian misperception of God's grace into the truth.
Faith is a gift from God, based solely on His mercy for His fallen creature, unmerited and non-refundable. It is ALL of God, and none of us.
Once we surrender the ego-driven error that we have anything to do with God's eternal decree regarding those He has saved and those He has hardened from before the foundation of the world, the rest falls into place. We can do nothing else but to drop to our knees in praise and thanksgiving.
"Faith in Christ is the evidence of God's choosing, not the cause of it."
