What Is Faith? Part 2 Series

Contributed by Tom Fuller on Oct 23, 2005

What is faith? We see faith worked out in what we call heros of the Old Testament - but they, like us, were stretched and confronted with problems as they learned to trust God.

Last time we began chapter 11 of Hebrews - the great chapter on faith. Hebrews 11:1 Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen. We learned that faith is believing that God is who He says He is and that He will do what He promised He will do - even though ...read more
