2. Faith
• Hello children.
• Romans 10:17
says, Faith cometh by
hearing, and hearing by
the word of God.
• Hebrews 11:1 says,
Now faithisthesubstance
of things hoped for, the
evidence of things not
seen.
3. Faith
• What is faith?
• We cannot see it or feel
it.
• It has no shape or smell.
• We cannot ask the
storekeeper for a pound
and a half of faith.
• What is faith anyhow?
4. Faith
• Faith is believing God.
Faith is trusting Him.
• Faith is taking God at His
Word.
• Faith is believing what
God says He will do.
• Faith needs facts or it is
no good at all.
• We can put our faith in
the wrong thing and we
find ourselves let down or
disappointed.
5. Faith
• Suppose I really believe
that 2 + 3 = 6.
• Suppose, believing it, I
put that answer down on
the test.
• Will the teacher mark my
answer correct?
• No, because my facts are
wrong.
• Just believing something
does not make it true.
6. Faith
• A nurse one day was
preparing a formula for a
newborn baby.
• Accidentally she used salt
instead of sugar, because
she believed she was
using sugar.
• The baby got sick.
• The nurses facts were
wrong.
• Her faith was only as
good as the facts.
7. Faith
• What are you trusting
to get you into heaven?
• Are you sure it will get
you there?
• Believing is not good
enough.
• It matters what you
believe or in this case
Whom you
believe, Whom you
trust.
8. Faith
• The Bible says of the
Lord Jesus Christ that
He is like a solid rock or
foundation stone.
• He is tried and proven.
The Bible says that the
one who believes in
Him will never be
disappointed or put to
shame.
9. Faith
• If you were
drowning, would you
allow the lifeguard to
rescue you?
• Would you then allow
the Lord Jesus Christ
Who died in payment
for your sins and arose
again to save your soul
from sin?
10. Faith
• Acts 4:12 says, Neither is
there salvation in any
other: for there is none
other name under heaven
given among
men, whereby we must
be saved.
• Believe on (put your
complete faith and trust
in) the Lord Jesus Christ
(and Him alone), and
thou shalt be saved (Acts
16:31).
11. Faith
• Prayer
• We pray that our faith in Jesus Christ as lord
and savior continues to grow in our hearts.
• Amen
