FAITH

WHAT I LONG TO COMMUNICATE
THROUGH MY MESSAGE ON FAITH

I desire to show that God is a Spirit and He is the
only object of faith. Since God the Spirit is invisible, faith
does not depend upon anything visible when trusting Him.
Our natural hearts gravitate toward sight, or at least
toward a mixture of sight and spirit. But true faith rests on
the objective revelation of the Lord. I also desire to show
the difference between unbelief and struggling faith.
Unbelief has no desire to believe; struggling faith has the
desire to believe. God accepts struggling faith as faith.
Faith is only as strong as the Object it leans upon. God
Himself is the object of faith.
