Christian Beliefs

The Christian beliefs that most of us have, when it comes to having faith in God's Word -- could be, summed up within one scripture?

If you were to look in your Bible and go to the book of Hebrews, you'll find that scripture and it reads: "Without faith it is impossible to please God" (Hebrews 11:6)

Our Christian beliefs, when it comes to faith; leads us to believe that God's Word in its entirety -- should be studied.

We must not treat God's Word, like a buffet at a restaurant; picking only the things that appeals to us.

We must study God's Word, the whole Book -- in order, to get a complete understanding; on what, He's trying to tell and reveal to us.

Now our faith, will enable us to embrace; and stand on every Word that we may read -- in God's awesome Book. On this page, I'm not going to be able to address everything -- that faith has to offer.

But I will briefly touch on three main components, that I feel; you must have, in order to get the full benefits -- when it comes to, achieving the "True Essence of Faith."

For starters, how can one believe in something, and the thing that you claim to believe in, you have no knowledge of it? If you never heard of it, and you don't know of it -- then how can you believe in it?

This is why, it is crucial; that you really try to get an understanding of God's message -- that He has presented to you, throughout the Bible. The more you understand, the stronger your faith will become.

You see, you may know of a thing; and yet -- you still don't believe. So it's not, just about reading God's Word; and trying to get some type of understanding.

But you have to agree with what's being said, when it comes to God's Word. You must take hold of these Sacred Scriptures, and plant them into your heart and mind.

You must know, that God's Word; is truth, and presents the correct pathway -- that will lead you, to your eternal salvation.

One could wonder, if you can have all of this, and still not; achieve the true essence of faith? Could your faith be limited, and keep you from receiving all; that God has to offer you. The answer to this thought, would be a resounding -- yes.

For you must have, so much confidence in what your reading; that you would bet your eternal salvation on it.

So, just because you know; that Jesus is referred to as a Saviour and Redeemer, you must whole heartily believe; that He is, your Saviour and Redeemer; and through Him, and the great sacrifice that He made for us -- you will, be forgiven and receive your eternal salvation.

Now my friend, that's what I would call -- "The True Essence of Faith."
