MY NOTES ON FAITH
53Faith is the substance of existing things not yet seen.
Faith is the Word of God in action.
Spoken words are not thoughts.
Substance is an existing quality (not imagination or thoughts). It is based on the Word of God. Stability, absolute, and unchangeable matter confirms the validity of the WORD.
The Word of God and spirit realm (supernatural) is more real and stable than the world we can see and perceive with our five physical senses. The material world always changes.
One can prove faith by results. But faith cannot be contaminated by doubt. If one believes in the healing of incurable diseases, than one will be healed. If one believes in blessing he will never lack anything. The Word of God was already tested. We may test it also, but we should not be subject to fail the test. God is never testing us.
Unbelief was born out of propaganda. It is a taught negative force.
God is the Creator of the universe and everything we can see. God and His Word are inseparable and are one. Creation is not and should not be separated from the Creator. If this would happen creation would disintegrate. All we can see is holding together by special glue, the Word of God. The worlds are framed by the Word of God (Bible).
Hebrews 1:3 Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear.
Faith is a tool. It worked for God, it will work for me and for anyone who uses it. A hammer is working for me just as it is working for a carpenter. But it is unwise to be disconnected from the awesome God, who made the tools. If a tool is broken, God replaces it.
Religion is a destructor of faith. It is a destroyer of values. Run away from religion and run to God. Adam ran and hid himself after he sinned the sin of unbelief. It was evidence of the separation from God. Separation and divorce from God is always bad news. It creates chaos since there is no Word - the glue, which holds everything together.
The question: Does faith works without believing in God? The answer is yes. But it may be only temporary and will not last.
99% is faith and 1% we see.
God is love. Faith works through love.

It is true.
You are special
and doggy is cute.
Vladimir...You have asked a question that has been with me for a long time now...I still don't have the answer...the equation Faith = Belief = Truth still eludes me...I have a real problem placing Faith in anything but myself it seems...much like my poem " The Empty Man ", I await the answer...it's for certain I will have the answer when I pass on, but it would certainly be comforting to have that knowledge now...Perhaps that is a part of the grand design, seek and you shall find...I have sought,and I have found naught...Thank you for this thought provoking Hub...Larry
See I am not religious. I am a believer and since I know the Bible more and more I understand it better. I am full of joy despite (when) sorrow came. I know one thing, man cannot convert other to God. It is misunderstanding if someone believe that or push. Holy Spirit (Ruah) is only One who can solve the problem. God loves us so much, I am sure the answer will come. Perhaps we should ask Him. It will be authentic. CS Lewis (was an atheist) said one time to God: God if you are I am giving my life to you. And He did.
Well spoken Vladimir both in your hubs and your comments.
Without faith we have nothing, after many years of depending on myself I was without Christ.
Faith in Him and all the blessings He has provided this past 10 years have multiplied many, many times over. Faith is displayed in how we live our lives. Thank You Father.
Blessings as always
Amen, bro.
