Faith
Faith is simply taking God at His word. This description of faith leads the writer of the epistle to unfold the long and famous “honor roll” of Old Testament persons who lived, endured, and died in faith, and had from God the testimony that they pleased Him. It is important to remember that God has never had two ways of saving men. Faith has always been the way to salvation -- faith in God in the Old Testament (Old Covenant) and faith in the blood of Christ in the New Testament (New Covenant).
Faith is what we must have today to get us through all the trying situations that we face. Faith is taking God at His Word. Can you say today “I believe God”?
Yours in Christ,
Pastor Jeff
