Preparation for Wednesday November 18, 2015

So we managed to talk about two of the three things I wanted to discuss last Wednesday--that leaves us to investigate the topic of faith.  Specifically, faith as it relates to abiding in Christ and dealing with whatever challenges might come our way.  

So to start, consider Jn 3:14-15, which refers to a very interesting Old Testament event that involves faith.  What synonym is used for faith?  Would the line of reasoning laid out in these verses lead you to believe that faith is something intrinsic to human beings, or something special that God has to give to you?

Then read Jn 6:29 -- again, does this seem like Jesus is telling the people that faith is something they have to do or that God has to give them.  

Lastly, see if you can see a connection between Heb 11:1 and Rm 10:17.

See you on Wednesday,
Kevin
