2. Heb 11:1 ESV Now faith is the assurance of things
hoped for, the conviction of things not seen.
1. Faith is being sure of things you cannot see.
2. Faith is being sure of things hoped for (eternal life).
3. Faith is based upon a conviction of the evidences.
Read Romans 1:19-25
3. Gal 3:1 NKJV O foolish Galatians! Who has bewitched you that you
should not obey the truth, before whose eyes Jesus Christ was clearly
portrayed among you as crucified?
Bewitched – baskainō here it means to charm or bewitch, to lead astray
by charms or spells.
―Should not obey the truth‖ is not found in what is considered the best
manuscripts. Therefore, most of the newer translations do not include.
The greater question becomes, is the statement consistent with biblical
truth; John 8:32; 17:17
4. Joh 3:36 ESV Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life; whoever
does not obey the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God remains
on him.
Rom 2:6-10 NKJV who "WILL RENDER TO EACH ONE
ACCORDING TO HIS DEEDS": (7) eternal life to those who by
patient continuance in doing good seek for glory, honor, and immortality;
(8) but to those who are self-seeking and do not obey the truth, but
obey unrighteousness—indignation and wrath, (9) tribulation and
anguish, on every soul of man who does evil, of the Jew first and also of
the Greek; (10) but glory, honor, and peace to everyone who works
what is good, to the Jew first and also to the Greek.
5. Rom 6:16-17 NKJV Do you not know that to whom you present
yourselves slaves to obey, you are that one's slaves whom you
obey, whether of sin leading to death, or of obedience leading to
righteousness? (17) But God be thanked that though you were slaves of
sin, yet you obeyed from the heart that form of doctrine to which you
were delivered.
Heb 3:17-19 NKJV Now with whom was He angry forty years? Was it
not with those who sinned, whose corpses fell in the wilderness? (18)
And to whom did He swear that they would not enter His rest, but to
those who did not obey? (19) So we see that they could not enter in
because of unbelief.
6. 2Th 1:7-9 NKJV and to give you who are troubled rest with us when the
Lord Jesus is revealed from heaven with His mighty angels, (8) in
flaming fire taking vengeance on those who do not know God, and on
those who do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ. (9) These
shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the
Lord and from the glory of His power,
7. Gal 3:2-5 NKJV This only I want to learn from you: Did you receive the
Spirit by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?— (3) Are you
so foolish? Having begun in the Spirit, are you now being made perfect
by the flesh? (4) Have you suffered so many things in vain—if indeed it
was in vain? (5) Therefore He who supplies the Spirit to you and works
miracles among you, does He do it by the works of the law, or by the
hearing of faith?
8. Gal 5:16 NKJV I say then: Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfill
the lust of the flesh.
Gal 5:18 NKJV But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the
law.
Gal 5:25 NKJV If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.
But How are we led by the Spirit?
9. Gal 3:2-5 NKJV This only I want to learn from you: Did you receive the
Spirit by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?— (3) Are you
so foolish? Having begun in the Spirit, are you now being made perfect
by the flesh? (4) Have you suffered so many things in vain—if indeed it
was in vain? (5) Therefore He who supplies the Spirit to you and works
miracles among you, does He do it by the works of the law, or by the
hearing of faith?
―Hearing of faith‖ – We are led by the Spirit by a ―hearing of faith‖
10. Rom 10:14-17 NKJV How then shall they call on Him in whom they
have not believed? And how shall they believe in Him of whom they
have not heard? And how shall they hear without a preacher? (15) And
how shall they preach unless they are sent? As it is written: "HOW
BEAUTIFUL ARE THE FEET OF THOSE WHO PREACH THE
GOSPEL OF PEACE, WHO BRING GLAD TIDINGS OF GOOD
THINGS!" (16) But they have not all obeyed the gospel. For
Isaiah says, "LORD, WHO HAS BELIEVED OUR REPORT?" (17) So
then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.
11. Gal 3:7-9 NKJV Therefore know that only those who are of faith are
sons of Abraham. (8) And the Scripture, foreseeing that God would
justify the Gentiles by faith, preached the gospel to Abraham
beforehand, saying, "In you all the nations shall be blessed." (9) So then
those who are of faith are blessed with believing Abraham.
Gal 3:9 ESV So then, those who are of faith are blessed along with
Abraham, the man of faith.
What does it mean to be a man of faith?
12. Heb 11:8 NKJV By faith Abraham obeyed when he was called to go out
to the place which he would receive as an inheritance. And he went
out, not knowing where he was going.
Heb 11:17 NKJV By faith Abraham, when he was tested, offered up
Isaac, and he who had received the promises offered up his only begotten
son,
Heb 11:13 NKJV These all died in faith, not having received the
promises, but having seen them afar off were assured of them, embraced
them and confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth.
13. Read Galatians 3:13,14, 18, 22,-25
Gal 3:26-29 NKJV For you are all sons of God through faith in Christ
Jesus. (27) For as many of you as were baptized into Christ have put on
Christ. (28) There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor
free, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus.
(29) And if you are Christ's, then you are Abraham's seed, and heirs
according to the promise.
