Monergism

A friend loves at all times, and a brother is born for adversity.
-Prov 17:17

"Greater love has no one than this, that one lay down his life for his friends."
-John 15:13

“True friendship thrives when, before God, each one is more aware of his debts than his rights.”
- Ray Ortlund

"The next best thing to being wise oneself is to live in a circle of those who are."
-C.S. Lewis

"As genuine human beings, from Genesis 1 onward, we are given the mandate of looking after creation, of bringing order to God's world, of establishing and maintaining communities. To suppose that we are saved, as it were, for our own private benefit, for the restoration of our own relationship with God (vital though that is!), and for our eventual homecoming and peace in heaven (misleading though that is!) is like a boy being given a baseball bat as a present and insisting that since it belongs to him, he must always and only play with it in private. But of course you can only do what you're meant to do with a baseball bat when you're playing with other people. And salvation only does what it's meant to do when those who have been saved, are being saved, and will one day fully be saved realize that they are saved not as souls but as wholes and not for themselves alone but for what God now longs to do through them."
- N. T. Wright (Suprised by Hope pg. 199-200)
