You trusting in yourself, not Grace Salvation in and through Christ, wherein all of eternal salvation was conditioned on Him
Christ did it all, nothing we can do.

a common error!

nothing we can do to receive the initial grace of Justification but after that we must participate!

Philippians 2:12
Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling.

phil 1:29
For unto you it is given in the behalf of Christ, not only to believe on him, but also to suffer for his sake;

mt 7:14
Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.

Luke 9:23
And he said to them all, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me.

Colossians 1:24
Who now rejoice in my sufferings for you, and fill up that which is behind of the afflictions of Christ in my flesh for his body's sake, which is thechurch:

why if Christ did it all?

7 Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.

8 For he that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that soweth to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting

Failure to rightly divide the word of truth leads to all manner of confusions, like the one you wrote. Injecting salvation into places where it's not the object of of the context and key verses used, that's not an honest handling of scripture.

More salvation by works
Your Calvinism has so blinded you to the truth of what real saving grace is about.
Paul wrote,' Therefore we conclude that a man is justified apart from the deeds of the law'. Rm 3:28.
So, if one is justified by faith Rm 5:1, and justification is apart from works, then one's faith or believing in Christ is NOT a work.
Monergism is wrong. God does not do the believing for us. It is a co-operation with the Holy Spirit.
If I am given a gift and I receive it, I cannot then boast that I had anything to either deserve it or initiate it.
Salvation is all grace, but it is not Monergism.

Works salvation
 
Perseverance, and the grace we need every day, comes from God. We don't grow grace by our good works. Rather, we need God's grace to be able to do good works. If grace came through works, it wouldn't be grace.

Saving faith is God's condition for forgiveness (IF/MFW, Deut. 30:19, Matt. 23:37), not a meritorious work,
both at conversion (Matt. 4:17, 7:7) and during lifelong sanctification (John 6:29, Eph. 2:8-10).
 
Saving faith is God's condition for forgiveness
False, Saving Faith is Gods evidence of salvation and forgiveness, further if you make anything a condition for salvation and forgiveness other than the obedience unto death of the Lord Jesus Christ, is an insult to Him and attempting to gain them by your works.
 
Cliche's never prove anything. Got any proof?

I have read many of your posts and your accusations to those who disagree with you. You are just as guilty of the same things that you charge others with. For example, on the subject of 'eternal security', you often use verses out of context, proof text instead of presenting the issue or subject in the light of all Scripture. You appear to be a dispensationalist and as such you often interpret Scripture through that lens rather than let Scripture examine your dispensational views.
As to your manner, you are too readily dismissive of others and at times disrespectful. These are your brothers and sisters in Christ; they deserve better from you.
Just some thoughts, not written in malice, but in love.
Be Blessed

Still ignoring GW: (IF/MFW, Deut. 30:19, Matt. 23:37), not a meritorious work,
