What do you think FAITH is ?
Its not just a word .... its not just a term which people follow or diffrent ways of doing prayers ...... or what a mum teaches ... its why a mum teaches her kids and how does it effects the Kid as a Part of Human Soceity.

Religion is the single most reason for the development of Human Being as a race of this Planet earth ....
Why coz religion is all about faith ...... faith and belifes .... faith beliefs and experinces ........ passed on to the generations .... this whole things has kept us grounded .... to have customs .... to have ceremonies ...... Well some may be good so may be bad ..... diffrent things and faiths may be follwed for centuries ..... Its not just about going to Church or a Temple on a regular basis ... it is much more then that ... it is the basis of our faith systems and communities ..... if Human Beings did not have an umbrella of religion we would still be scattered living in primal caves and there would have been no structure of scoitey as a whole and consecutivle no development in different areas of life like science ... trade ... relations ....... and our whole existence on this planet

People believe in faith because they want to believe in something bigger than themselves and this world. Humans do not want to believe that there is nothing after this world after their life ends. People want to have the feeling that in some way, they will go on after this world.

They want to believe that there is a grand design or creator to this reality. The reason being that there are so many questions that we cannot answer. Life does not make sense without some kind religion or faith. Without it, all of the experiences and lessons that we learn while we are on earth have no value.

Like you don't? Things that we assume true without proof and are taken as fact, is what faith is. Right now you have faith that faith is an illusion that people have. Faith in yourself, believing in yourself, faith in your friends, family, beliefs, we all are kidding ourselves if we think we know indisputably that our Viewpoints, belief- systems, etc. are flawless and unquestionable. Faith is an integral part of the human experience. But I think what you want to hear is why we have faith in our religions. That is simply, that it's easier to assume truths, than it is to seek truth. Unquestioned, dogmatic, blind-faith is truly a scary thing. One should always question because I believe that if a higher power did create us with the minds we have that this power wants us to use our intellect, and common-sense, deduction and intuition. Beliefs should always hold up to these.

Faith is believing without seeing. But faith is only the first
step. As it is said faith without works is dead.
I don't belive in a blind faith. What we need today is personal spiritual experience. That is the only way to
dissolve doubt.
We can all begin by sharing our own personal spiritual experiences with others. Everyone has had an experience
with the "unknown"!

I can guarantee you live by faith too.

Let me explain...... Think of someone you love and trust. Now imagine the cops came to your house and said that person killed 100 people in a mass-shooting. Of course you would say they are crazy and don't know what they are talking about. By faith, you know your loved one wouldn't do that. What is your faith built on, though? Experience. You know the person you love, you know they wouldn't do that. In the same way, when we have come to know God by his Spirit, we have faith based on that experience we have built up. We trust in God not merely because God is an answer to the unknown, but instead because of the presence of God that we have felt.

Everybody believes something. Like you believe the chair you are in will hold your weight. Because you have sat in it before and it held you. Faith for me is my trust in God because He has proven his love for me and is always helping me through this life.Supernatural things are not always explained in the natural. God works through people and circumstances. He speaks to my spirit which is a "knowing", not an audible hearing. Why faith? Because He's never let me down, unlike people.

People believe by faith, not in faith. People have faith because the things that are seen vanish before their eyes. Faith in things that are dead is death itself.

Belief and faith however is not enough, in James 2:19 we are told that the devil believes and trembles, let me put it another way John 3:16 and John 14:15 For God [The Father] "SO" Loved you that He gave [Jesus the second member of The Godhead gave Himself] so "IF" you will BE-LIVE in Him should not perish but have everlasting life, and "IF" you Love Him enough to BE-LIVE in Him keep His commandments, if faith and belief does not move one to obey than you have no more than the devil, in Rev. 22:12 The Lord will reward YOU according to your WORKS shall be, find out more free on line bible lessons www.itiswritten.com bible questions www.bibleinfo.com email me also wgr88@yahoo.com God bless
