Saving Faith

“[saving faith is demonstrated]…by the Word of God having come in divine power to the soul so that my self-complacency is shattered and my self-righteousness is renounced…by the Holy Spirit convicting me of my woeful, guilty, and lost condition. … by having had revealed to me the suitability and [ALL] sufficiency of Christ to meet my desperate case and by a divinely given faith causing me to lay hold of and rest upon Him as my only hope… by the marks of the new nature within me – a love for God; an appetite for spiritual things; a longing for holiness; a seeking after conformity to Christ”
