"Isaiah - God saves sinners" Buy from www.amazon.co.uk or www.amazon.com
Raymund Ortlund
Salvation is God liberating the soul from the habits of self focus. Salvation is God clearing away the tangle undergrowth of self-absorption forever. Salvation is God replacing all this dark complication with something new and simple and beautiful, flooding the human soul with a sense of His glory. That is how we obtain gladness and joy. That is how sorrow and sighing flee away. So let God save you. Your heavenly joy will begin even now.

"The Perseverance of the saints" Buy from www.amazon.co.uk or www.amazon.com
Dr Martyn Lloyd-Jones
The Apostle's assertion has been that God has done everything in connection with our salvation. It is God who 'foreknew' us and therefore 'predestinated' us, and therefore 'called' us and therefore 'justified' us and therefore 'glorified' us. And the aregument is that, because God has done so, salvation is certain

Judith Gundry Volf
Paul portrays salvation as a series of divine initiatives snowballing toward fullness. He links these initiatives so tightly that each is born of the former and bears a promise of the one which follows. Glorification is thus the finishing touch on the indivisible divine work of salvation which originated in God's foreknowledge and predestination of Christians and has come to historical expression in their calling and justification. These verses truly do form a 'chain' of interconnected divine salvific works and so imply a continuity in Christians' salvation

Douglas Moo
"Believing", then, while a genuinely human activity, possesses no "merit" or worth for which God is somehow bound to reward us; for salvation is, from first to last, God's work.

Francis Schaeffer used to say that if he had one hour to explain the gospel to someone, he would spend the first fifty minutes on the bad news of judgement and then the last ten minutes on the good news of salvation, because without the context of judgement we don't appreciate or even understand salvation.

"The Death of Death in the Death of Christ" Buy from www.amazon.co.uk or www.amazon.com
J.I. Packer
Packer said, "The very act of setting out Calvinistic soteriology [the doctrine of salvation] in the form of five distinct points (a number due, as we saw, merely to the fact that there were five Arminian points for the Synod of Dort to answer) tends to obscure the organic character of Calvinistic thought on this subject. For the five points, though separately stated, are inseparable. They hang together; you cannot reject one without rejecting them all, at least in the sense in which the Synod meant them. For to Calvinism there is really only one point to be made in the field of soteriology: the point that God saves sinners. "God – the Triune Jehovah, Father, Son and Spirit; three Persons working together in sovereign wisdom, power and love to achieve the salvation of a chosen people, the Father electing, the Son fulfilling the Father’s will by redeeming, the Spirit executing the purpose of Father and Son by renewing." "Saves – does everything, first to last, that is involved in bringing man from death in sin to life in glory: plans, achieves and communicates redemption, calls and keeps, justifies, sanctifies, glorifies." "Sinners – men as God finds them, guilty, vile, helpless, powerless, unable to lift a finger to do God\'s will or better their spiritual lot. God saves sinners – and the force of this confession may not be weakened by disrupting the unity of the work of the Trinity, or by dividing the achievement of salvation between God and man and making the decisive part man\'s own, or by soft-pedalling the sinner\'s inability so as to allow him to share the praise of his salvation with his Saviour. This is the one point of Calvinistic soteriology which the "five points" are concerned to establish and Arminianism in all its forms to deny: namely, that sinners to not save themselves in any sense at all, but that salvation, first and last, whole and entire, past, present and future, is of the Lord, to whom be glory for ever; amen."

Charles Stanley
When I think of Calvary and the price that was paid to provide me with salvation, the thought of my having the power to undo all of that seems preposterous.
