2:13 {5} For it is God which worketh in you both {n} to will and to do of [his] good pleasure.(5) A most sure and grounded argument against pride, because we have nothing in us praiseworthy, but it comes from the free gift of God, and is outside of us, for we do not have ability or power, so much as to will well (much less to do well), except only by the free mercy of God.(n) The reason why we are not statues; and yet we do not will well by nature, but only because God has made of our wicked... read more
