- A certain conviction, wrought in the heart by the Holy
Spirit, as to the truth of the gospel, and a hearty reliance (trust) on
the promises of God in Christ. - Louis Berkhof's Systematic Theology
- Grace wrought in the heart of a sinner by the Spirit, and word of God, whereby he, being convinced of his sin
and misery, and of the disability of himself and all other creatures to
recover him out of his lost condition, not only assenteth to the truth
of the promise of the Gospel, but received and rested upon Christ and
his righteousness, therein held forth, for the pardon of sin, and for the accepting and accounting of his person righteous in the sight of God for salvation. - Louis Berkhof's Systematic Theology
