Sensus fidei (sense of the faith), also called sensus fidelium (sense of the faithful) when exercised by the body of the faithful as a whole, is “the supernatural appreciation of faith on the part of the whole people, when, from the bishops to the last of the faithful, they manifest a universal consent in matters of faith and morals” [Wikipedia]

A Wascally Evangelical, I’d say “almost.” If in place of “faith and morals” one put “direct reliant and trusting relationship to the Lord and the fruits thereof” you’d get the Reformation concept of this same thing. Might sound like a quibble to Roman Catholic and Orthodox Christians, but it drills down to the quintessence of what being a Christian is. Sometimes the church concept of faith reduces to embracing a set of doctrines for the sake of something less than the Lord, and that is wrong in any context.
