MORE INFORMATION REQUIRED
Would you be surprised if I told you that we don't get saved by faith? Oh, but you say we can't come to God unless we believe. Yes, that's true, but why do we believe; that's what I'm asking you.
Often the general response is that all the preachers I know tell us that we get saved by faith and not by works. Yes, I know we must believe in our heart and confess with our mouth that Jesus is Lord, thereby being converted.
But where did that belief come from?
We know by scripture that we have no faith on our own; it's God's faith that we use when we come to Jesus. So if I have no Faith, how then do I get saved?
The scriptures plainly tell us in Ephesians 2:8 that we get saved by grace through faith. So something must happen in our life that introduces us to the grace of God, thereby giving us faith to believe.
You will hear some teaching that we must have blind faith with no proof; believe God; that's all you can do. I don't even think God expects that.
Why?
When Jesus came out of the tomb and spent 40 days among his disciples, the Scriptures tell us in Acts 1:13 that Jesus showed himself to his disciples with many infallible proofs, and somehow he could convince them of who he was by evidence of what he had done.
Look at how he presented himself to Thomas by showing the scars on his hands and side. Thomas believed because he had evidence of a face-to-face experience with God himself.
Acts 15:11 declares through the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ; we shall be saved. It's no wonder many Christians struggle with their faith in God because they have never had a personal experience with him. I guarantee you that when you do, your faith will never waiver.
So how do we have that personal experience?
Ask, and you shall receive seek, and you shall find knock and that she'll be open for you.
