Godomatic again

All this thinking about what is or is not justification runs out at some point and we turn to God and acknowledge our dependence on Him. For what is impossible for us is not impossible for Him and He will save whom He will.

 Some, reading this have said, but that is just what justification by faith alone is all about. Well, no it isn't. Justification by faith is a desperate attempt to create some sort of mechanism to make justification happen. "Have faith and you will be saved" and that takes God out of the equation.

In the end, our faith is based on God's promise. We trust and hope and love in that but no one can ever claim to know what God will do.
