I've never claimed that, nor has anyone posted that. God is the only means of salvation. We are saved by grace through faith.

Ok... So we don't have to do anything

Seems you aren't paying attention. I said "we are saved by grace through faith". We have to believe.

The problem is that reformists cannot understand that believing is not considered a "work" or a "deed" which merits God's favor.

The problem with those who believe so much in free will is that they make it a work and some thing that is rewarded...

You have directly contradicted what I've said. Seems clear that you aren't paying attention. Please do. It isn't a work and it isn't rewarded. That is only a wrong opinion of what you think free willers think.

Of course the Holy Spirit is involved. John 16:8,9 is very clear. Apart from His convicting ministry, no one would come to faith.

Posting the verse doesn't mean one actually believe it or adhere to it in practice... Or doesn't simply believe it fits their view no matter how far they twist it...

So...you think the verses I post are not actually believed by me? That's quite cheeky, imho. Why would I post verses if I didn't believe them or practice them? That seems to be the height of judgmental accusation.

Let me assure you; the verses I post are totally believed by me. But from your posts, I would suspect that you just won't believe anything I say.
