The Bible applied to the heart by the Holy Spirit, is the grand instrument by which souls are first converted to God. That mighty change is generally begun by some text or doctrine of the Word, brought home to a man’s conscience.

que penetró hasta la conciencia del hombre.
To "bring it home" as an expresion denotes the ultimate penetration into a person's soul or conscience. "El hombre" refers to men as an entity in the context in which I wrote it. I allude the older Spanish of the 19th century which it is still used in many parts of the Spanish Bible (Reina-Valera version).

English term (edited):
brought home to a man�s conscience
traída a la consciencia de un hombre
no creo que "bring home" deba ser traducido literalmente. Podrías si acaso decir "llevada a la conciencia del hombre" - "haciendo que el hombre tome conciencia de ello".
Suerte!
