The British theologians: conversion in two senses
Thesis LXIV. The British theologians untie this knot in the explanation of their opinion on the third and fourth articles that is included in the Acts of the Synod of Dort. They point out that 'conversion' is used in two senses.
First, it means the direct work of God by which he regenerates a person; second, the act by which a person turns himself to God through faith and saving repentance. In conversion or regeneration in the first sense, on their account, a person is passive, and it is not in the human will's power to hinder God as he thus directly converts and regenerates.
In conversion in the second sense the will, moved by God, does act, and it performs the acts that make up our turning to God.

LXIV. Hunc nodum solvunt Theologi Britanni in explicatione suae sententiae circa tertium & quartum articulum, actis Synodi Dordrechtanae inserta. Ubi observant conversionem duplici sensu sumi. Et primo quidem denotare immediatum opus Dei hominem regenerantis. Secundo denotare actionem hominis per fidem & poenitentiam salutiferam se ad Deum convertentis. Ad opus conversionis, sive regenerationis primo modo sumptae homo, juxta ipsos, se habet passive, neque est in potestate voluntatis humanae impedire Deum sic immediate convertentem & regenerantem. In conversione vero secundo modo accepta voluntas acta a Deo agit, actusque, quibus constat nostra ad Deum conversio, elicit.
