A. Faith is indispensable to us. The Bible declares that without faith it is impossible to please God. We are saved by grace through faith. We are instructed to live by faith and to walk in faith. B. Faith is not just believing.
Faith involves believing and acting upon that belief.
In chapter eleven of Hebrews we have one account after another of people who expressed their faith in God by obedience to His Word. C. Faith is taking God at His Word believing what He said is true. That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. What He said about eternal security. What He said about heaven.
