Romans 10:17, Faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the Word of God.
What is faith?
Hebrews 11:1, Faith is the substance of things hoped for and the evidence of things not seen.
We know that without faith it is impossible to please God. We can only believe in the existence of God by faith. We can not touch or see him so in order to believe we must act upon our unfeigned faith to believe the impossible. The evidence of God rest is in our hearts, not material or temporal things. If you desire to live a just and righteous life you are required by God to live by faith and not by sight. The believers faith is that which overcomes the world.
James 2:20, Faith without works is dead.
The just shall live by faith but when we apply ourselves to work that is when we see the evidence or the “kinetic faith”, faith in motion. Faith is important to establish patience in our life when we are waiting on God, however, if we practice faith whereas we could move mountains and have not love then we have nothing at all. In this life we live, there claim to be many experts on the subject of God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit. Some hypothesizes that not all of the bible is to be believed because it does not line up with astrology. Others proclaim a contradiction because it does not collaborate ideology and scientific theory.
I am writing this to encourage everyone to believe in the impossible and the invisible things of God “unvarnished truth” because all things are possible with God. People today still search for faults in the gospel, contradictions to disprove and pervert God’s Word. The words of Jesus are both episodic and synoptic. I assure you that no amount of academic/detective work, what worldly evidence or proof anyone may show or invent will change my intrinsically steadfast and unwavered faith.
Galatians 1:8 But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.
