So many today don’t understand faith. For instance, some think “faith” is just a leap in the dark. No evidence, just belief.
Real faith is based on evidence. When it comes to the creation, there are only two options - mind or matter. Either mind produced matter, or matter produced mind. There is an old axiom that says, “Nothing comes from nothing.” How could something come from nothing? Evolution teaches that every living creature came from a single cell amoeba. What an absurd belief!
Paul writes in Roman 1:19-20, “For what can be known about God is plain to them, because God has made it known to them.” For His invisible attributes namely, His eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived ever since the creation of the world, in the things that have been made, so they are without excuse.” Isn’t it true that we all believe in something? Our gracious God has given us free will. We can choose to believe, or not.
When it comes to salvation, faith is trust in a personal Savior. It is dependence upon Jesus and His blood. Acts 12:4, “There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.”
