Westminster Confession
14/1. The *GRACE* of faith, whereby the ELECT are enabled to believe to the saving of their souls,[a is the WORK of the Spirit of Christ in their hearts,[b and is ordinarily wrought by the ministry of the Word;[c by which also, and by the administration of the sacraments and prayer, it is increased and strengthened.[da. Heb 10:39. • b. Eph 1:17-19; 2:8; 2 Cor 4:13. • c. Rom 10:14, 17. • d. Luke 17:5; Acts 20:32; Rom 1:16-17; 4:11; 1 Pet 2:2. 2. BY THIS FAITH a Christian believeth to be true whatsoever is revealed in the Word, for the authority of God himself speaking therein;[a and acteth differently upon that which each particular passage thereof containeth; yielding obedience to the commands,[b trembling at the threatenings,[c and embracing the promises of God for this life and that which is to come.[d But the principal acts of saving faith are accepting, receiving, and resting upon Christ alone for justification, sanctification, and eternal life, by virtue of the covenant of grace.[e a. John 4:42; Acts 24:14; 1 Thes 2:13; 1 John 5:10. • b. Rom 16:26. • c. Isa 66:2. • d. 1 Tim 4:8; Heb 11:13. • e. John 1:12; Acts 15:11; 16:31; Gal 2:20. |
