Why Faith Is Important
October 1, 2017
Now why is faith so important? Because you can’t please God without faith. Hebrews 11:6 says, "But without faith it is impossible to please Him: for he that cometh to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of them that diligently seek Him."
Romans 5:1 says, "Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ." If you please God, it doesn’t matter whom you displease. And if you displease God, it really doesn’t matter whom you please. The way to please God is to believe God.
Anybody can be saved if they will put their faith where God put their sins. It is faith that enables us to live the Christian life. First John 5:4 says, "For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith."

Real Truth Never Changes
Real truth never changes, and the truth about government is that it is God who ordains it, leaders who are responsible for it, and citizens who are accountable to it. The privilege of being called Americans comes with significant responsibilities—to God, to each other, and to the world.
