You can not finish the work. You have no part in earning or working for salvation.
When you were born did your mother do ALL the work or did you help her?
Was she upset that you were just along for the ride?
John 19:30 It is finished
John 3:7 Ye must be born again
You can not even see your need:
Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.
Just like you could not help your Mom, you need to be born of God and He does not need your help.
Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.
cute story though

Matthew 11:29-30Kevin, how many oxen are there in a yoke? (Hint: two) With Jesus Christ pulling with me, I find the job much easier, than if I have to do it alone. But I do have to pull with Him, He would not be happy if I just relaxed and let him do all the work. Reminds me of the time I was a pall-bearer--there were three of us on one side, and when we had to carry the casket uphill, I know I was the only one lifting. The other two were just going along for the ride. Is this what you are advocating?
