Real Faith Is:
“The product of the expectation of and belief in what is and will be, based on verifiable evidence that has been undoubtedly, undeniably proven”
+
Taking a Grounded Stance
+
Having a Definite Outcome
+
Resulting From Existing Proof
A strong, grounded stance built on a firm foundation.
Hebrews 10:39 designates two types of people regarding faith – those that timidly “shrink back” and those that persevere “of faith“. At the end, the timid will end in destruction (2 Peter 2:20) while those who continued in obedience of faith will end in salvation (1 Peter 1:8-9).
An outcome promised by our faithful God
The hope mentioned in Hebrews 11:1 refers to the expected result that will come for those who obey Him, in which we can have confidence. “He is God, the faithful God…” (Deut. 7:9). Hope given by a God “who cannot lie” (Titus 1:2).
Shown by multiple proofs in multiple forms.
The apostle Paul was very upfront about the need to understand the concept that, if there exists no real proof for faith, then it is not true; it is vain, worthless (1 Corinthians 15:14, 17). Jesus Himself taught that if He had not provided proof, the people would have good excuse not to believe (John 15:22).

Blessed Be the Tie
“God did not intend for countless numbers of individual Christians to find their own way home to Him. Instead, His intention is for us to function as one whole, bound together in like precious faith that we share in grief, pain, hope, and rejoicing.”
“
Every Christian should teach, preach, dispute, confute, rebuke, exhort and whatever else is necessary to get men to see the Truth, and to know the difference between the Truth and error. This is the work of the church.”
