Scripture
What Is Faith?
Illustration
Christian Life, Faith in
Telephone-pole climbing is an art.
In order to climb, one must have a belt that goes around the pole and wear spiked shoes.
The secret is to lean back and depend on the belt so the spikes can dig into the pole.
Depending on the belt is hard to learn; often a beginner slides down the splintery pole because he won’t depend on his equipment.
It only takes a few such experiences to convince the beginner that it is better to depend on the belt.
In the Christian life, God wants us to climb by depending on him.
When we are hurt by splinters, we should recognize that they are reminders that we need to depend on his strength and loving protection.148
Why is faith important necessity to have?
A fundamental duty for all people and the necessary response to God’s self-revelation.
The only channel through which God’s blessings may be received, and the only means by which life may be made meaningful, in relationship with God.
