I believe you are correct in your understanding of the term 'release your faith'. Faith without coresponding action is dead faith. In the book of Hebrews chapter 11, the 'hall of fame' of faith as it is called note that every person mentioned DID something with the Word of God. They OBEYED the Word of God and saw God perform miracles in their lives. The ultimate fulfillment, Jesus, however, they did not see in their living years. Faith must be sown to produce, otherwise it is like seed in a package, seed that will never produce. Often we mistake 'hope' for faith. We may hope God will do a certain thing but faith applied to the promise enables the Holy Spirit to produce the result. Hebrews 11:1 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. God bless God bless |

faith is a very important factor in our christian walk with Christ. We can't even be forgiven for our sins except we believe that Jesus is the rewarder of life and will forgive us for our sins. Luke 7:50 "Thy faith hatha saved thee; go in peace. peace be unto you my sister or my brother. be blessed. |

Hello fran1946, Thank you for the response. This is a very important topic as all the provisions of the will Christ has given us (the New Covenant) must be received through faith. And as you pointed out..beginning with the new birth into the kingdom of God. Purhaps some have difficulty with the concept of 'receive by faith' because we do not add faith in what or who.. I believe we receive all the promises of the New Covenant through faith in the Word of God which is His will and testament to us, and without faith which works or acts we receive nothing even though it has been provided. God bless |
