Our Why
In the Christian life, faith is not merely an accessory; it is the essence of our walk with God. Faith is the reason why we believe, the foundation upon which our hope stands, and the means by which we are justified before a holy God.
Without faith, the Christian life would be impossible, for faith is the channel through which God's grace flows into our lives. Faith: "The Foundation of Our Salvation" The writer of Hebrews makes it clear: "(Without faith it is impossible to please Him), for he who comes to God must believe that He is and that He is a rewarder of those who seek Him" (Hebrews 11:6).
Faith is not a blind leap in the dark; it is trust in the revealed Word of God. It is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen (Hebrews 11:1).Faith is the reason why we can approach God with confidence. It is by faith that we accept the atoning sacrifice of Christ on the cross, knowing that His blood covers our sins. It is by faith that we believe in His resurrection, which guarantees our future resurrection. Without this faith, we would remain dead in our sins, but because of faith, we are made alive
