There are men in our days who look upon conversion as an imaginary act, and say simply that man has changed his opinion. They freely grant that God can create a moral being once, but do not concede him the liberty of creating it a second time – of transforming it. Conversion is always the work of God. There are forces working in nature which cause the earth to bring forth its fruit; and yet some would maintain that God cannot work in the heart of man to create a new fruit!...Human will is not sufficient to explain the changes manifested in man; there, if anywhere, is found something mysterious and divine.
Jean Henri Merle D'aubigne
