- By faith, through faith, in faith;
- Walk by faith, live by faith, justified by faith, understand by faith, sanctified by faith;
- Saved through faith, boldness and confident access through faith, Christ dwells in our hearts through faith;
- Strong in faith, sound in faith, ask in faith, rich in faith, offered in faith, continue in faith, abound in faith.
If it really is all about faith what is our ‘faith’ in?
We can have faith (confidence, trust, reliance, conviction, devotion, belief) in a lot of things; people, ideas, wealth, man-made religion, the stuff of life, nothing but oneself, etc…
So the question today is: What is our faith really based upon or maybe a better way to ask - who (not what or where) have we placed our faith in?
And are we passionate (fervent, ardent, devoted, enthusiastic) in our faith?
As a result, what does a life of passionate faith look like in the real, everyday world in which we live?
A passionate faith in Jesus Christ manifests itself in everyday life when we are filled with the Holy Spirit and live the sold-out life of a Grace and Truth dispenser.
Galatians 2:20 I have been crucified with Christ; and it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself up for me.
