We ‘cooperate’ by our faith, not works. All we must do is believe, good works flow out of the belief, but is not a requirement for salvation.

That was very succinctly put. Excellent way of expressing it.

This is all the action required......

1 John 1:9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

Martin Luther, a failed Augustinian monk, misrepresented the Gospel in the fifteen hundreds.

He pulled Faith versus works out of thin air - or I could use a different phrase.

It is too easy and that is why Luther achieved a following. People seek the easy path.

so you won’t look at Phil 2:12-13.

Will James 2:14-24 convince anyone.
