Divine quickening . . . is that phraseology yours because it ain't God's. We are quickened by the word of God - the words within scripture quicken us . . . God's word gives us a new "heart" (mind, will, heart, understanding) which quickens us and brings about godly sorrow which leads to repentance - we repent and believe in the one He sent . . . we are born again (that which is born of the Spirit is spirit) and inherit eternal life. People respond to the gospel all the time . . . they hear, they believe, they are sealed . . .
Sirs, What must I do to be saved? Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and you shall be saved and your house.
Hereby know the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God. 1 John 4:2 Whosoever shall confess that Jesus is the Son of God, God dwells in him and he in God. 1 John 4:15
Whosoever believes that Jesus is the Christ is born of God: and everyone that loves him that begat loves him also that is begotten of him. . . . Who is he that overcomes the world, but he that believes that Jesus is the Son of God? . . . He that has the Son has life; and he that has not the Son of God has not life. These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that you may know that you have eternal life, and that you may believe on the name of the Son of God. . . . And we know that the Son of God is come, and has given us an understanding, that we may know him that is true, and we are in him that is true, even in his Son Jesus Christ. 1 John 5:1,5,12,13,20
