Thomas Boston, Works, 1:552:

The way to obtain true repentance and sanctification is to believe. For these are the benefits of Christ’s redemption, Acts 5:31; Matt. 1:21; and these are applied by the Spirit working faith in us, and thereby uniting us to Christ in our effectual calling. How can one think to repent truly, or to be holy, when he is not united to Christ, John 15:5; or to be united without faith? As soon shall the falling dew pierce through the rock, as one shall be able to do any of these out of Christ, whom the Father has constituted the head of influences, and on whom all our fruitfulness depends.
