"...if anyone makes the assistance of grace depend on the humility or obedience of man and does not agree that it is a gift of grace itself that we are obedient and humble, he contradicts the Apostle who says, "What have you that you did not receive?" (1 Cor. 4:7), and, "But by the grace of God I am what I am" (1 Cor. 15:10). (Council of Orange: Canon 6)

Recommended Books

We have been requested to post some of the top books in their categories. So this list is not exhaustive. Previously we posted what we thought to be the Top Ten Books on Piety, Sanctification, Spiritual Growth but the following are all books you should have on your bookshelf (if you are interested in the category). As a side note, starting now through the middle of July 2008, Monergism Books is having a major sale (at least 50% off) on some choice books. Quite a few titles were reduced in price just this week.
