Great Faith!

When we talk about finding God’s heart in salvation, we must take a close look at faith. God’s greatest desire is for all His children to worship and serve Him. When we give our lives to Him in obedience, He gladly gives us eternal life.

When we quickly say the plan of salvation -  hear, believe, repent, confess and be baptized, it is easy to overlook the fact that the word believe is actually used as a synonym for have a great faith in God. This is a difference between an intellectual belief and a life changing belief. Faith is a belief in God that changes a person’s entire life.

This Sunday we will look at five aspects of that life changing faith:

  1. Trusting God’s word
  2. Accepting the challenge of faith
  3. Obeying God
  4. Enduring the hardships
  5. Standing firm
I’ll see you Sunday.

"And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to Him must believe that He exists and that He rewards those who earnestly seek Him." (Hebrews 11:6)
