We call it sanctification, the Holy Spirit working in us to be more Christ like

Sounds like someone attached to a divine tractor and being dragged like a rag doll. We believe in cooperating with the Holy Spirit, as a patient would cooperate with a physician. We can always refuse. But in Reformed theology, one is ambushed and taken hostage by the Holy Spirit, and then frogmarched off to heaven, to borrow Mark's terminology.
