Now please, for your own benefit, meditate on this definition. Faith is the substance. Faith is the real or essential part or element of anything. Faith is reality and it is basic matter. Faith is solid, has character, consistency and body.
Faith is the real content, meaning and gist of anything spoken or written.
Faith is a material possession, your property, a resource, and adds to your portfolio. Faith can control your mind like a drug and cause you to believe in things not seen. Faith has independent existence. Without faith in Him and His word you cannot believe that He exists and you cannot believe the fact that He is rewards anyone who diligently seeks Him.
