Listen "Simple Gospel - Where's The Faith"
Episode Synopsis
WTF: Where’s The Faith?Faith is important to God. 6 And it is impossible to please God without faith. Anyone who wants to come to him must believe that God exists and that he rewards those who sincerely seek him.HEBREWS 11:6God is ALWAYS clear about what’s important to Him.4 Love is patient and kind. Love is not jealous or boastful or proud 5 or rude. It does not demand its own way. It is not irritable, and it keeps no record of being wronged. 6 It does not rejoice about injustice but rejoices whenever the truth wins out. 7 Love never gives up, never loses faith, is always hopeful, and endures through every circumstance.1 CORINTHIANS 13:4-7 Faith: trusting in and acting from what God says instead of what we can seeFAITH DOES NOT STOP AT TRUSTING IN GOD. IT MOVES INTO ACTING ON WHAT GOD SAYS.INTELLECTUAL AGREEMENT + TRUST = FAITH. FAITH WILL ALWAYS SEEM A LITTLE CRAZY.IT’S NOT FAITH IF YOU CAN SEE IT1 Faith shows the reality of what we hope for; it is the evidence of things we cannot see. 2 Through their faith, the people in days of old earned a good reputation.HEWBREWS 11:1-2THE FACTS THAT WE WANT ERODE THE FAITH WE NEED.14 At the foot of the mountain, a large crowd was waiting for them. A man came and knelt before Jesus and said, 15 “Lord, have mercy on my son. He has seizures and suffers terribly. He often falls into the fire or into the water. 16 So I brought him to your disciples, but they couldn’t heal him.”17 Jesus said, “You faithless and corrupt people! How long must I be with you? How long must I put up with you? Bring the boy here to me.” 18 Then Jesus rebuked the demon in the boy, and it left him. From that moment the boy was well.19 Afterward the disciples asked Jesus privately, “Why couldn’t we cast out that demon?”20 “You don’t have enough faith,” Jesus told them. “I tell you the truth, if you had faith even as small as a mustard seed, you could say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it would move. Nothing would be impossible.[d]”MATTHEW 17:14-20OUR FAITH CAN OPEN DOORS. OUR LACK OF FAITH CAN CLOSE THEM TOO. 20 “You don’t have enough faith,” Jesus told them. “I tell you the truth, if you had faith even as small as a mustard seed, you could say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it would move. Nothing would be impossible.[d]”MATTHEW 17:14-20The faith that we must have has more to do with what kind of faith it is than with how much faith there is. A small amount of faith, as small as a mustard seed (a very small seed), can accomplish great things if that small amount of faith is placed in the great and mighty God. - GUZIK THE PLACEMENT OF OUR FAITH IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN OUR AMOUNT OF FAITH.HOW TO GROW FAITH:START WITH GOD; NOT USDETERMINE TO OBEY LEAVE THE RESULTS WITH HIM
