Every Believer Has Faith Romans 12:3 For I say,  through the grace given to me, to everyone who is among you,  not to think  of himself  more highly than he ought to think, but to think soberly, as God has dealt  to each one a measure of faith. Here's a lot of believers make a mistake. They say, "My trouble is, I don't have any faith. I can say to them, "Well, why don't you get saved then, because saved people have faith! You can't be saved without having faith." Ephesians 2:8 says, "...or by grace you have been saved  through faith , and that not of yourselves;  it is  the gift of God,   If you really don't have faith, then you're not saved. What you need to do is get saved, and that will solve your problem of not having faith.

Therefore leaving the principles of the doctrine of Christ, let us go on unto perfection; not laying again the foundation of  repentance from dead works , and of faith toward God, Of the doctrine of baptisms, and of laying on of hands, and of resurrection of the dead, and of eternal judgment. Hebrews 6:1-2 REPENTANCE is a cardinal doctrine of Christianity. We must repent of trusting our “good works” to get us into Heaven, and not just trusting in works before salvation.A “dead work” is something that you try to do to earn your way into Heaven.It is dead because Many professed Christians are hoping their works will get them to Heaven.(I know this because I was one of them.)You need to, even as a Christian, make sure that you’re not expecting your good works to get you in.If you were once trying to get into Heaven without Christ, you were trying to work your way in and you need to repent of this. How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit...

  What is faith?   Faith is grasping the unrealities of hope and bringing them into the realm of reality now. A key verse in the study of faith is the familiar one found in Hebrews 11:1,  “ Now faith is the  substance of things hoped for, the  evidence  of things not seen. ”    Moffat’s translation of this verse reads, “Now faith means that we are confident of what we hope for, convinced of what we do not see.”      Another translation says, "Faith is giving substance to things hoped for." Still another translation reads, "Faith is the warranty deed, the thing for which we have finally hoped is at last ours." Here God is telling us what faith is.    There are a number of kinds of faith. Everyone, saved and unsaved alike, has a natural human faith. The above scripture, however, is talking about a supernatural faith-- a faith that believes with the heart rather than believing with our physical senses may...
