Free Will or Free Grace?   

"The human will obtains not grace by freedom, but freedom by grace." (Augustine; Lib. de Corrupt. et Grat.; Chap. 2)  

"Free Will without God's grace is not free at all, but is the permanent prisoner and bondslave of evil, since it cannot turn itself to good." (Luther; Bondage of the Will; Chap. 2, Sec. 9)  

"The will is not destroyed but rather repaired by grace." (Calvin; Institutes of the Christian Religion; Book 2, Chap. 5, Sec. 15)  

"I will go as far as Martin Luther, where he says, 'If any man ascribes anything of salvation, even the very least thing, to the free will of man, he knows nothing of grace, and he has not learned Jesus Christ rightly.'" (Spurgeon; Sermons, Vol. 1, p.395)
