So Great A Salvation
Part 7 – Faith
Faith is confidence in the faithfulness of God which leads to reliance and trust in God and obedience to Him (Hebrews 11:6). In salvation, faith is a voluntary change of mind and heart in the sinner in which the person turns to God, accepting and relying on His offer of salvation through Jesus Christ.
FAITH = BELIEF + TRUST + ACTION.
Faith does not operate in a vacuum. It must affect our:
- Mind – by recognition of our need of salvation. Acknowledging Christ’s death on our behalf and our need of forgiveness.
- Emotional (Heart) – by giving personal assent to the gospel - What must I do to be saved? Agree to make salvation a part of life.
- Will – by a conscious turning of our inner affections and motivations to personal trust.
Another way of putting it is that we should:
- Surrender the whole of our life to the Lordship of Christ (John 8:12; Romans 10:9)
- Receive and appropriate Jesus into the life. (John 1:12; Revelation 3:20)
- Accept His death on our behalf, and the forgiveness He offers (1 John 1:7,9).
Next in this series, we look at the role of perseverance in the life of the Christian Disciple
