Hi jaytee. By the grace of God (praise Him), I just got back from Church, where the pastor explained the difference during his sermon. Pastor Paul told of a group of kids swimming, and a larger boy was catching smaller children in his arms as they jumped off a ledge into the water. One boy was afraid to jump into the arms of this boy,He believed the boy would catch him, but he lacked faith. But when his father was in the water with his arms outstretched, the boy jumped right in. The pastor continued saying that there are many who believe in God and believe what the Bible says, yet they lack the faith to take the plunge, which is what Christ is calling us to do. It is not easy to take the leap, for it requires great faith. By His Grace, Tim P.S. My humble apologies to Pastor Paul for butchering his sermon so. |
