The Power Of Faith : 9781724642400

What Is Faith Here is the main verse from our Bible which will tell us exactly what faith is: "Now faith is the Substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen." (Hebrews 11:1) Faith is a substance on the inside of you. Some believe this verse may be telling us that faith is literally a spiritual substance that operates on the inside of us and that it is capable of growing or waning. However, other Bible Scholars do not believe that faith is an actual substance. Their argument is based on the Greek word for substa-nce. This Greek word is hypostasis and it means: A setting under or support foundation, assurance, confidence, confident expectation, an assured impression and a mental realizing." Other good definitions of faith, from some of the different Bible Dictionaries and Commentaries are the following: The assurance of things hoped for, a belief or confident attitude, conviction, trust, belief, reliance, and a trustworthiness towards God. But whether faith is a spiritual substance or more of a mental quality, it can still be actually increased or decreased, And we are given a certain measure of it by the Lord.
