What is faith? Bible students love to hurry to Hebrews 11:1 to answer this question. “Faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen.” This is Scripture’s true answer, but now compare it with another Scripture: “And Jesus said to her, ‘Daughter, your faith has made you well; go in peace, and be healed of your disease,’” --Mark 5:34. Jesus was talking to the woman who had been bleeding for twelve years. Does this mean it was her “assurance” and “conviction” that made her well? Does this then also mean that people who are NOT healed of their diseases then LACK such conviction? Before you answer, consider carefully and join us for a study of Scripture’s answer to “What is Faith?”
