Saving Faith and the Sovereignty of God

Man’s natural state is deadness in sin, and saving faith is a gift from God. (Ephesians 2:8-10). We thank God for faith because he gave it (Colossians 1:3-4). This is the consistent Scriptural picture (Hebrews 12:2, 2 Peter 1:1). “The question is not what you will do with Christ, but what will Christ do with you” - Sproul
