Down to Earth But Heavenly Minded

FAITH is the soul’s reception of a divine testimony?
mony. It is my heart simply assenting to
what God says. When He says, I am utterly
lost-” This, my son, was lost and is found,”
I believe it. That is faith. When He says,
” It is a faithful saying, and worthy of all
acceptance, that Christ Jesus came into the
world to save sinners,” I believe it. That is
faith. When He says, ” He that believeth on
the Son hath everlasting life,” I believe it.
That is faith. So then by faith I learn I am
lost, that Christ came to save, and that believing
Him I have eternal life. Faith is a very simple
thing. There is no question of feeling.
