Paragraph 10.2

Of the Second London Baptist Confession of Faith

This effectual call is of God's free and special grace alone, not from anything at all foreseen in man, nor from any power or agency in the creature co-working with His special grace,⁠1 the creaure being wholly passive therein, being dead in sins and trespasses, until being quickened and renewed by the Holy Spirit;⁠2 he is thereby enabled to answer this call, and to embrace the grace offered and conveyed in it, and that by no less power than that which raised up Christ from the dead.⁠3

The Westminster Confession of Faith (1646)
