The Faith of the Son of God IV - Faith Defined, Faith IS

Hebrews 11:1 “Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.

 

And faith.  I like this one definition. I mean if you go out on Biblehub.  You can look up this word and it'll give you definitions like this long and you can read through them and there's some really good stuff on it.  But I like this simple thing. Faith is persuasion given of God.  Ok, let that sink in for a minute. I wrote a note with this.  That persuasion given of God is reality of the Person of Christ.  The reality of the Person of Christ. So, so, what do you mean the reality of the Person of Christ?  OK, that's a question mark. I'm gonna continue on with my notes. Or comprehension of the person of Christ who is in you.  So, faith is the persuasion given of God. And again I wrote, the reality of the person of Christ or comprehension of the person of Christ who is in you.  (Wayne Shelton)

 

We are to comprehend Him.  We are to understand and live in the understanding of Him that is in us.  We are to live in His reality, not what we may perceive of ourselves, but what we come to konw of Christ who is in us.  "I live by the faith of the Son of God."  Glory to God!
