FAITH worketh by LOVE. We walk by FAITH, not by sight
And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul. And the Lord God planted a garden eastward in Eden; and there he put the man whom he had formed. And out of the ground made the Lord God to grow every tree that is pleasant to the sight, and good for food... Genesis 2 : 7 - 9
We are saved by HOPE: but HOPE that is seen is not HOPE: for what a man (or woman) seeth, why doth he yet hope for? But if we hope for that we see not, then do we with patience wait for it. Likewise, the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. And he (or she) that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God. Romans 8 : 24 - 27
FAITH worketh by LOVE. Galatians 5 : 6
We walk by FAITH, not by sight. II Corinthians 5 : 7
Set your mind on things above, not on things on the earth. Colossians 4 : 2
All things, whatsoever, ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive. Matthew 21 : 22
Seek ye FIRST The Kingdom of God and his righteousness... Matthew 7 : 33
Now FAITH is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. Through FAITH we understand that the worlds were framed by The Word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear. But without FAITH, it is impossible to please God; for He that cometh to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of them that diligently seek Him.
Hebrews 11 : 1 & 3 & 6
Therefore, being justified by FAITH, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ. By whom also we access by FAITH into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in HOPE of the glory of God. And not only so, but we glory in tribulation also: knowing that tribulation worketh patience; and patience, experience; and experience, HOPE. And HOPE maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Spirit which is given unto us. Romans 5 : 1 - 5
A new commandment I give unto you: that ye love one another; as I have loved you, ye also love one another. By this shall all men ( and women) know that ye are my disciples, if ye have LOVE one to the other. John 14 : 34 - 35. Beloved, let us love one another: for LOVE is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God. He that loveth not, knoweth not God: for God is LOVE.
I John 5 : 7 - 8
For by GRACE are ye saved through FAITH;
and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God.
Ephesians 2 : 8
