Hebrews 11:1: "Faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things unseen."
We speak of faith in so many different senses. But at its heart, there is distinct and certain content of faith. When we talk of faith in any way other than faith in Christ Jesus, then we are, by definition, speaking of faith's derivative. That is to say that when we say that we have faith in this or that we are merely paying homage, consciously or otherwise, to the faith that is eternal: faith in God. We should keep this perspective before us at all times as we strive to live lives of fulness and authenticity.
