Faith

Let's look at the word Faith in the bible, for here you will see how to accurately use this word.
I use various bible versions for my study please feel free to use what works for you but make sure it's words that you can look up the meanings and by all means pray before you do a study of GOD's word to invite his inspiration upon your heart and mind.
Heb 11:1 The Message Bible
The fundamental fact of existence is that this trust in God, this faith, is the firm foundation under everything that makes life worth living. It's our handle on what we can't see.
Heb 11:1 Amplified Bible
NOW FAITH is the assurance (the confirmation, the title deed) of the things [we] hope for, being the proof of things [we] do not see and the conviction of their reality [faith perceiving as real fact what is not revealed to the senses].
Did you get something from these two scriptures?
GOD is so fair and right, and good. He has given each of us the ability to make choices, we have free will.
In this country the Bill of rights has an amendment that says we have the freedom of religion, so we can choose any religion we want, in addition we can choose to have no religion or to have faith in GOD, it's our human right and our American right.
Let's keep moving, so you want to have faith?
Jude 1:20 Amplified Bible
Build yourselves up [founded] on your most holy faith [ make progress, rise like an building higher and higher], praying in the Holy Spirit; (which means pray with GOD's power.)
Heb 11:6 Says: THE MESSAGE
It's impossible to pleaseGod apart from faith. And why? Because anyone who wants to approach God must believe both that he exists and that he cares enough to respond tothose who seek him.
Did you get the point from these two scriptures?
Next time I will post more about Faith from GOD's word.
