"The Essence of Faith"
Hebrews 11:1-3
Believing is seeing.
1. Faith is the only way to live with confidence. (11:1)
2. Faith is the only way to win God's approval. (11:2)
3. Faith is the only way to understand our universe. (11:3)
The Bible Text
Hebrews 11:1-3
1 Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen.
2 For by it the men of old gained approval.
3 By faith we understand that the worlds were prepared by the word of God, so that what is seen was not made out of things which are visible.
