In this matter our knowledge is limited. We know not how it is—or what it is, the spirit of God does in the regeneration of the soul. We are as ignorant here, as we are in the matter of giving sight to the blind—or in the manner of vision with the eyes of the body. How the mind perceives by the natural eye we cannot tell. So the Spirit does something—he that was blind, now sees. He that was deaf now hears God's testimony—perceives the veracity of God—sees the truth of the testimonies contained in the law and in the gospel: and seeing the truth, that Christ died that whosoever believeth on him, should not perish, he sets to his seal, that God, in this testimony, is true.

George Junkin — George Junkin, D.D., President of Lafayette College, Easton, Penna., A Treatise on Justification (Philadelphia: J. Whetham, 1839), ch. XX, "On Saving or Justifying Faith," Sec. III, p. 294
