🤔🕵️‍♂️ in regards to James 2:24 Two words are worth introducing here: ascentia and fiducia
Posted : 23 Feb, 2023 08:50 AM

Ascentia is the mental assent–the mental acknowledgment of something’s existence. The demons acknowledge and believe that God exists. Fiducia is more than mental acknowledgment. It involves a trust in something–a giving over to it, a complete believing and acceptance of something. This is the kind of faith that a Christian has in Christ. A Christian, therefore, has fiducia; that is, he has real faith and trust in Christ and not simply an acknowledgment that He lived on earth at one time. Another way to put this is that many people in the world believed that Jesus lived: ascentia. But they do not believe that He is their savior, the one to whom they should look and trust for the forgiveness of their sins.



Ascentia does not lead to works. Fiducia does. Ascentia is not of the heart. Fiducia is
