Jesus is Faith
Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.
JESUS EXPLAINS WHAT IS FAITH
Jesus, describes what faith is to me. To believe in Jesus is to have faith. Jesus is faith, he said! Not having faith is not an option, because you already believe in me! There is no other direction to follow. Then he said, one must go forward towards the path of life by faith. Going towards where the cross leads, despite if your path feels fearful or scary. Then he continue to say, faith is everywhere! Jesus’ description of faith to me ends here.
Faith is Substance
Hebrews 11:1 King James Version
1.) Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.
The faith I am writing about is to believe in the unseen world “in a super natural God”. That is to believe before it exist in tangible form. To be able to see it in this world, like you and me. We can see each other because we have tangible substance. Our flesh has mass, takes up space, and time on earth. Right now, Jesus is not tangible to Christians, as he was in the days of the Bible. Some people in the Bible had the privilege of seeing Jesus alive when they were alive. People could see him as a human being, the man Jesus. Jesus is alive in spirit and by faith we believe in him. God, the Holy Spirit, and Jesus are three in one. Existing as one God which we worship.
I believe that with the measure of faith a human has, the Holy Spirit convicts each human being of their own sin. People will desire to be saved. If one seeks to know the truth, his truth will set you free. Jesus is a spirit, those that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.
When we stop believing in him, because of fear, terror, confusion, or etc., on earth, we have committed a sin. Jesus forgive us for falling prey to evil. Everyone feels this negative emotions, even myself. When we train ourselves to take control of our fear in our own mind first in Jesus’ name, then we can overcome many other things! I have trained myself through Jesus’ Word, to trust Jesus to guide me. His Word, The Bible, is alive and is a spirit.
One Cannot Please God without Faith in Him
Hebrews 11:6 King James Version
6.) But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.
We must trust God in the good and in evil times, even though we do not understand why good and evil serve his purpose. I have accepted and learned as a born-again Christian that the Devil and his angels are my enemies. They will always fight me in any way they can, even unto my death. This is something a child of God must learn and accept. Though we are a child of God, spiritual warfare is not about us. It is all about Jesus Christ! It is about Jesus, because Lucifer who was once Jesus’s friend in heaven, is now his greatest enemy. He operates in the air, on earth, and in the heavenly places allowed. Jesus is our commander, our leader in the army of heaven, with powerful weapons of warfare against the army of hell.
In the Strong’s Bible Concordance it says the Greek word for faith is, pistis. It is pronounced pis’-ti.
