    Authentic Versus Counterfeit Faith (Part I) Series

    Contributed by Richard Tow on May 20, 2024
     | 1,511 views

    Justification is by faith alone. But we must be sure that the faith we are operating in is the biblical faith Paul is talking about in Romans 4. The authentic faith of Abraham is described in verses 16-22. This description is examined.

    The Apostle Paul said he was not an elegant speaker; he did not desire to use flattering words to draw attention to the cross. It is a shame too many preachers today feel they must use flattery or jokes to attract or keep an audience.

    I have heard many preachers over the span of my life. My father said they began attending church assemblies on Easter just a few days after my birth. Over sixty years have I been in an assembly hearing preaching. Think about the number of years and the many preachers you have heard. You have heard ...read more
