So where do I find faith? Can I find it? And how do I ensure that my faith is based on something reliable so that faith isn't misplaced, dashed, and lost. Would it not be worse to believe in something later proved false and untrustworthy than to never have believed at all?
Romans 10:17 simply tells us that faith comes from hearing the message...and the message is heard by the Word of Christ. If this is a true statement, the Bible is reliable and can be used to build real, solid, life-changing, hope-generating faith...faith that is everything and changes everything for the better.
So I guess the only question remaining is, "How do I know that Romans 10:17 is true and trustworthy? What can I do to find out whether or not to count on it's truth? Is there a method of KNOWING and ensuring that the Bible is God's mind in print?
Yes...
And, if you're nice to me... I'll talk more about that next time :) ....
In His Love,
