Faith Message from 9/6/2026

The message focuses on the definition, importance, and practical application of faith in the life of a believer, drawing heavily from the Book of Hebrews, specifically chapter 11.

Key themes include:

Defining Faith: Pastor explains faith not merely as a cerebral concept or a feeling, but as a "living, breathing organism"  and an action . He emphasizes that faith is the substance of things hoped for and the evidence of things not seen 

Foundation of Spirituality: Using the analogy of a building, he asserts that a firm foundation is essential for enduring trials, and for Christians, that foundation must be faith in God .

Faith vs. Hope: A central point is the distinction between hope and faith. While hope involves a desire for an outcome, faith is the confident belief in what God has promised, even without visible proof or prior knowledge of the outcome 

Faith not merely as a cerebral concept or a feeling, but as a "living, breathing organism"and an action

Biblical Examples: The pastor highlights figures like Abel, Enoch, Noah, Abraham, and Sarah as examples of those who pleased God through their obedient faith, even when they could not see the final results 

Action and Obedience: The sermon concludes by urging congregants to move beyond lip service and into a life of action, trusting God in the unknown, and maintaining their faith through prayer and obedience 

If you wish to strengthen your faith or seek salvation just ask the Lord.
