Faith
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.
In Christ
