There is a talk of faith that is as one expressed in a living God as seen in Christ by a person who believes, then there is the other which is identifying with a religious understanding, some form of mental assent to the ethics. If you truly have the first you will have the second experience. But you may have the second- which is a religious and intellectual undertaking and yet yet to embrace the reality of relationship, as in the first, meeting Christ spiritually. In that place consummating, believing, the truth of God revealed is crucial – becoming one with it. This is more than an illusory idea, or the mere claim of some high knowledge far from the truth. When the Apostles and early believers spoke of faith, they meant a living faith. The one and only prize to be won, above all. Thanks be to God. God bless.
2 Timothy 1:12b
“… for I know whom I have believed, and am persuaded that he is able to keep that which I have committed unto him against that day.”
