FAITH in God may be compared to many things.

  1. Faith is the hand that receives the gift of God, and makes us rich (John 1:12).
  2. Faith is the eye that looks into the unseen, and beholds things which are beyond human ken (Heb. 11:1).
  3. Faith is the heart’s response to the call of the Lord (Rom. 10:10).
  4. Faith is the soul’s reliance on the Lord Jesus Christ (2 Timothy 1:12).
  5. Faith is the link that connects with Christ and God (Heb. 10:22).
  6. Faith is the wire along which the electricity of God’s power runs and communicates itself to us (Gal. 3:5).
  7. Faith is the operator which causes the feet to run in glad and swift obedience, as is illustrated in Israel’s marching round Jericho according to the Divine direction (Heb. 11:30). Obedience is the proof of faith. Where there is no obedience there is no faith. Therefore if we would triumph, we must obey.
    • “To trust and obey,
      There is no other way.”
    Or to put it more correctly,
    • “To trust is to obey.”
