“But what about this? ‘I saw Christ in His glory because God gave me a faith that could see Him.’ Now what? If someone thinks this means he was justified ‘on account of what a fine boy he was for having living faith,’ then he deserves whatever the Reformed confetti-counters do to him. But if he simply means that had God given him any kind of faith other than the living faith that He did give, and that he was justified because he had been given that kind of faith (instead of the other kind), this is simply Reformed orthodoxy. This is the difference between necessity and merit.”
