AUTHENTIC FAITH!
Many of us=want 100% proof
That there is a GOD=
But that is NOT
What real faith is
WHAT AUTHENTIC FAITH IS!
Authentic Faith call us
To BELIEVE without seeing
“BELIEVE in the Lord Jesus
And you=and your household
Will be saved” Acts
16:31
The disciples SAW
Jesus in the flesh
BOTH before his death
And after his resurrection
But there CAME a day
When he had to
RETURN to his Father=
And no longer
Could they see him
AUTHENTIC FAITH-
At its core=IS BELIEVING
Without seeing=without 100% proof
AUTHENTIC FAITH!
When Jesus was NO LONGER
In their midst
The disciples REMAINED in faith
THEIR FAITH WAS REAL!
“For my flesh-
Is REAL FOOD=
And my blood=IS REAL DRINK!
John 6:55
Sometimes in life=our faith
Is CLOUDED=
In doubt=in anxiety=and in fear
But even in
The UPS AND DOWNS
Of our life
And all of its curveballs
Faith is NOT
About seeing=or ABSOLUTE CETAINTY=
Yet I KNOW
In my heart of hearts
God is REAL
Jesus is real=
I have AN AUTHENTIC FAITH!
In the Lord
“He replied’
‘Because you have
So little FAITH=
Truly I tell you
If you have FAITH
As small=as a mustard seed
You can say=To the mountain’
‘Move from here to there’
And it will move=
Nothing will be=IMPOSSIBLE for you’”
Matthew 17:20
“In the same way
FAITH by itself
If it is=NOT accompanied by action
Is dead”
James 2:17
Faith does NOT HINGE
Upon signs and wonders either=
AUTHENTIC FAITH!
Isn’t just believing
What we cannot see
It is ACKNOWLEDGING
What is IN OUR HEARTS
IT IS AUTHENTIC FAITH!
Believe in God
Believe in Jesus
They are real=THEY ARE AUTHENTIC!
In Jesus’ name=and in the name=Of our EVER AUTHENTIC=Loving
Lord
