Truth Exposed:   Faith #2

The Greek for faith is pistis, and it means “a moral conviction; reliance upon Christ for salvation.”  But I heard a definition of faith today in church during the sermon that just stopped me flat:  “faith is an act of relocation from death to life.”  What is salvation?  It is a relocation from “death to life.”  What a simple, yet profound, explanation.  We relocate where we live. . . . in the world or in the spirit.  Take any one or all of the following scriptures and substitute the bold definition for the word faith.

Hebrews 11:6;  Matthew 21:22;  Romans 10:17;  Ephesians 2:8;  1 Cor 2:5.  Absolutely beautifully simple.

Read carefully.

Ask questions.

Know your scriptures.
