Unlike Grant, I haven't gone from beginning to end through the Christian's Reasonable service. Rather I have been treating it as a reference.
Anyway, perusing through the Chapter: Concerning Faith A Brakel states in the picture:
What is your take? Am I not informed of the context?
I was under the impression and have heard it said, or I read it somewhere rather (though I cannot recall where) that faith is trusting in the promises of Christ and applying them to yourself. Brakel seems to transfer this to assurance. Sometimes I wonder if talk like this on assurance isn't a form of a second blessing in the league with charismatics.
