Again we say, Faith is objective, for it glories alone in Christ's doing and dying. Although it is rooted in the heart, it rests upon something which is completely outside the heart. It is the eye of the soul that beholds the glory of Christ. And faith is the Spirit's work. Now faith, being a gift of God through the Spirit, becomes a living, busy, active principle in the life.
Love is also objective.
Self is not the center of its concern. It is self-forgetful, for faith has released the soul from the intolerable burden of looking for salvation within its own experience. The Holy Spirit teaches believers to obey God by conforming the life to the objective Word and law of God as the unerring, absolute standard of right and wrong. He lives within my heart. At best, that is a very subjective criterion for truth.
