FAITH
"Now faith is the confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see."
Hebrews 11:1
We are to trust in God's character and promises even when the final outcome or physical evidence is not yet visible.
"For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith -- and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God -- not by works, so that no one can boast."
Ephesians 2:8-9
Salvation is a free gift received by placing your trust in God and obeying His word rather than trying to earn your way through good deeds.
"Truly I tell you, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, 'Move from here to there,' and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you."
Matthew 17:20
Even a tiny amount of genuine faith directed toward God carries the power to overcome massive, seemingly impossible obstacles.
"In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead."
James 2:17
Real, living faith naturally expresses itself through how you live, treat others, and obey God.
