Act of Faith

1910 New Catholic Dictionary

An acceptance of a doctrine as true which we do not see or cannot prove of ourselves, because God says it is true. It is holding this doctrine as certain, and not as a mere opinion more or less probable. Hence faith excludes all doubt as well as private judgment.
