Hello Richard, Thanks for the response. Is see what your attempting to say. However, simply stringing together verses without any context doesn't really answer the question. So, what comprises faith? I note that Hebrews 11, is often referred to as "Faiths Hall of Fame". In reading it, you will not find it said, "But 'baptism' is the assurance of things hoped for" (vs 1), nor will you read, "By 'baptism' Abel offered to God a more acceptable sacrifice..." (vs 4)! Etc, etc.... However, we do see it said in 11:8, that "By faith Abraham obeyed..." Is not "faith" itself his and our obedience? (Rom. 1:5, 16:26) [I define faith here as simply believing God- and what He has revealed to us] Our faith in God is designed to produce obedience, but this faith can be manifested in different ways. I think our difference may be that we do not view salvation in the same way. Do you hold that salvation is, "by grace you have been saved through faith; and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God; not as a result of works, so that no one may boast?" (Eph. 2:8-9 NASB) Speaking the Truth in Love, BradK |
