Irresistible grace: god's grace is freely given, it cannot be earned or denied.

Step-by-step explanation:

They thought that men existed for the glory of god . They believed that man's most important job in life was to do god's will (what god wanted). By doing god's will , men would be rewarded with happiness in the future.
