Christians don't hope we have faith.
Here is what the Bible says. Hebrews 11:1-3 HCSB
Now faith is the reality (assurance) of things hoped for, the proof (conviction) of what is not seen. For by it our ancestors were approved. By faith we understand that the universe was created by the word of God, so that what is seen has been made from things that are not visible.
We live by faith, not by sight. 2 Corinthians 5:7 NIV
Faith is not mere human hope. Faith is based on the Word of God alone. Human hope may be based on the sands of wishful thinking or human desire, rather than on the rock of the Word of God. Doubt and hope raise the question, "What shall I do?" Faith says, "I have done!" The common phrase, "I am hoping and praying" is incorrect. "I have prayed and am believing" is more scriptural.

because of the fact it have good ethical teachings which different religions have not got. in addition to, this faith is in accordance with artwork, and faith. artwork interior the sense, artwork for God, like being good to others, help others, and teach unconditional like to all and sundry. in spite of the undeniable fact that we gained't gain that completely, its provides a competent religious feeling and inner happiness. 2d purely is the authority of scriptures, as there's no different scripture or background books in this international that have an excellent sort of copies and the time hollow b/w of the maximum recent present copied scripture and unique activities are so on the brink of one yet another. Having scriptures of practically 30,000 and ineffective sea scrolls relationship 3 hundred BC, plus 1000's of Church father letters relationship till now 2 hundred advert, no different e book have this plenty authority.

Christians believe that the Bible is true, just as Muslims believe that the Koran is true, just as the Hindus believe that the Bhaglavad Gita is true, just as those of whom are Jewish believe that the Torah is true. The questions you asked should be answered by you as an individual, not by me or anyone else. Do you want to be convinced or do you want to condemn and to deny?

I can accept those who hope it's true because it at least expresses some doubt which logically one would have to-it's the ones who say they know it's true that have the problem.

I know it is totally true, because I have the Holy Spirit of God within me to teach me, to guide me, and to show me the truth of God's Word.

True or not - it is their to believe in. As a Muslim, I say let them that wish to walk that path walk it. Only God can lead them to any other path and only IF he chooses to. Not you, not anyone else.
