YOU AND FAITH

 Saving faith includes intellectual assent, heartfelt trust, and personal allegiance to Christ. 

No. Intellectual agreement alone is insufficient. Even the demons believe true things about God and Christ, yet they neither love, trust, nor obey Him. 

Saving faith receives Christ personally, trusts in Him for salvation, submits to His lordship, and produces confession and allegiance. 

It means recognizing that the crucified Jesus was vindicated by the Father and revealed as the risen Lord of all. 

 It means acknowledging His rightful authority over one’s life and openly taking one’s stand with Him. 

No. Salvation rests entirely upon God’s grace through faith in Christ. Confession is the outward fruit and expression of living faith, not a meritorious work added to it.
