What Faith Knows
"Faith knows that of itself it does not produce salvation and abiding in Christ. So in the call to faith there is no room for a command to make a personal contribution to salvation and perseverance; there is simply a call to complete reliance on Christ." (G. C. Berkouwer)
I was interested to see that you have provided a number of quotations from Berkouwer. I've written quite a bit on his theology. Here's a link which I hope will be of interest to you - Berkouwer.
"Do you not know that in a race all the runners compete, but only one receives the prize? Run in such a way that you may obtain it. Every athlete exercises self-control in all things. They do it to receive a perishable wreath, but we an imperishable." (I Cor. 9:24-25)
