How then if you actually understand Hebrews 11:6 could you believe the lie of being regenerated before you believed and placed faith in Jesus ? No one can be born again without believing and having faith in Jesus.
Whose Witness will you receive?

Neither Arminians or provisionists formally hold that position
It is the evidence of salvific faith.

They are drawn by the Father to the Son who they then believe and accept or reject as per John 3 and Romans 1.
No one said they can. How does one come to believe? No one seems to be able to answer.

Ok, then I'm not understanding your post.

Yet, even in the face of clear teaching, the Calvinist church will say they were made alive (quickened) before any evidence of salvific faith. It's a corruption of biblical terminology in my opinion.
How can you produce agape love, contrition, repentance if you weren't first made alive in order to produce them?
Drawn by the Father and given to the Son.....all God's doing.

Correct and either YOU believed and accepted the truth or you rejected it.
Those given to the Son will come to Him.
really?
Romans 10:17 (KJV 1900) — 17 So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.
accompanied by the conviction of the Spirit
All God's doing.
All of God. You have no ability to believe apart from God.
again God enables faith with the gospel and conviction
He does not believe for you
Acts 16:30–31 (KJV 1900) — 30 And brought them out, and said, Sirs, what must I do to be saved? 31 And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house.
