Hebrews 11 NKJV
1 ¶ Now faith is the
substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.
2 For by it the elders
obtained a good testimony.
3 By faith we understand that
the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that the things which are seen
were not made of things which are visible.
6 But without faith it is
impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He
is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him.
13 These all died in faith,
not having received the promises, but having seen them afar off were assured of
them, embraced them and confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims
on the earth.

The

Biblical World View.
1.
Faith is our substance
2.
Faith is our evidence
3.
Faith will be our testimony
4.
By Faith we understand
I
challenge you this morning to have faith in God and believe the testimony of
the Bible. If God says it simply believe it; embrace it, confess it, let it be
your testimony and if need be die believing God for things you will not see in
this life. Rest assured for only a believer can understand faith.
