“The proclamation of grace without an actual movement of the Spirit’s grace is nothing but tiny works, cerebral works, the work of sitting on your butt listening to sermons about it . . . The experience of grace is the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ actually saving people. Of course, we tell them about it—how will they hear without a preacher—but salvation is not found in the telling, the hearing, the willing or the running. Salvation is found in the saving; salvation is as salvation does, and salvation does what God tells it to. And when salvation comes, one of the remarkable things is that the Reformed get reformed, and evangelicals get born again” (Empires of Dirt, pp. 252-253).
