Hebrews 11:1 'Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.'(KJV) ROMANS 8:24,25 24) 'We are saved by hope; but hope that is seen is not hope: for what a man seeth, why doth he yet hope for?

25) But if we hope for that we see not, do we with patience wait for it.'(KJV) Some people say they have no faith: but they exercise their faith daily during their day.

They have faith in their alarm clock will awake them at the proper time to get up.That is faith in a clock.

They have faith in an elevator-- that it will arrive at the stop you wanted.--it's a box on a cable--but you have faith in it.

If you travel--you get on a plane to get you there. You have faith that your ticket will get you on the plane, you have faith that the plane will fly--you have faith that it is the right one to get you to your expected destination and faith that it will land safely--that is faith in a machine.

But our Scripture is saying that faith is the substance of things hoped for.

You cannot touch faith You cannot see faith.

You can only believe--and that's real faith.

Our Scripture tells us that if we are saved we will have eternal life with Jesus--we believe this by faith that the Word of God is true--and by faith we believe what the Word of God says.

There are many who by faith--saw their faith come to pass--because they had real faith.

Do you ever wonder if God will do something for you?--That's doubt--true faith is believing that He will do what He says He will do--no doubts--real faith.

You do have faith--is it real faith?
