Romans 10:17 tells us that, “Faith comes from hearing the Message, and the Message is heard through the Word of God.” It was the Protestant Reformation and Martin Luther who declared that justification by faith alone was the article upon which the Church stood or fell. And this faith in the Gospel Message was then seen as the cardinal doctrine in the Reformation’s battleground back then, and even now. It’s this type of “saving “faith that goes beyond head knowledge to heart knowledge…it’s a “living” faith, not just an empty profession of trust with no commitment…and it’s a very “personal” faith trusting in Jesus Christ alone not only as Savior, but as Lord. We are to let the Word of Christ dwell in us richly, (Colossians 3:16) and then believe what we have heard…(Galatians 3:2-5) both building our faith and trust in God’s Word…one confident hope in His promises at a time.
