“A genuine Calvinist's perspective on salvation centers entirely on God. In the eyes of a true Calvinist, human beings have no capacity to approach God, nor can they even recognize their own sin. Salvation is entirely the result of God's work, unaffected by human actions or qualities. In this view, acts such as confession, repentance, believing or going to the altar hold no sway. To the true Calvinist, salvation is a work entirely independent of any human involvement; it is solely the work of God, with no contribution from humanity whatsoever.”
