Synergism: Word Of The Week
Synergism:
God initiates and does his part of the saving relationship, but it is up to man to finish it and do his/her part, thus cooperating with God for salvation. Usually the cooperating work is faith; however, the Bible shows us that faith is not man’s work but also a gift. (Eph. 2:8)
