What is the real faith?

Question

If I say Iam faithful to Jesus under what circumstances I would know I reall am

Answer 1

Faith is trust. Real faith? Really trusting God? Perhaps that is good enough for some people. But somehow I think that you are expecting more.

So what are you trusting God FOR? What promise are you trusting in Him for? Did you start your day, before you got out of bed, by claiming one of His promises that He made to any who trust in Him?

I'll tell you the one I've been faithing on,
The Lord is my Shepherd, I shall not have wants.

That is my promise, I made it mine, and I remind myself of it anytime that I remember to. All day long.

To me, that's really trusting God. Real faith means that I am actively trusting God, especially in the face of things that would make it seem untrue.

Answer 2

There are some questions you can ask yourself to find out you need to answer honestly that way to know. Ask yourself:Am I followiong Jesus example? how much do I know aboput Jesus and what his main objective was when he was here on earth?do I do the things that Jesus did when he was here? do I imitate his kind ways? Do I treat others the way he did?Am I a footstep follower of Jesus?do I do what Jesus asked his followers to do?Am I learning constantly about his Father and him ?(John17:3) What was Jesus relationship with his Father like? Am I imitating Jesus in the way he prayed to his Father?These questions if you answer them to yourself honestly will give you an idea of how you are doing in being a follower of Christ, it is always good to test wether we are really in the faith or just going through the motions.

Answer 4

being faithful to Jesus is not something you should need to convince others of. The relationship you have with Jesus should be personal, and what other people think of you is irrelevant to your experience with Him. Having said that, the way in which other people think of you is a very important factor to your relationship with those other people, and in my opinion your trying to convince others of your faith to Jesus is detrimental to those other relationships, because you are trying to force others into judging you, into thinking you are either faithful or not, and into thinking if that faith is a good or bad thing. If you force people to make decisions, you will often get the response you don't want from them.

So let it be.

Answer 5

When you follow the Ten Commandments you are being faithful to Jesus. But when you go beyond that, you are being a true Christian and are guaranteed eternal life after death. God's greatest commandment is Love; use this rule in your everyday life and you will be pleasing to the eyes of the Lord.

Answer 6

If one says is faithfull to a man or woman is through sticking to the agreement made between the two: Which could be amongst others: thou shall not sleep with another man as long as you are married to me, Thou shall not buy your mother (my mother-in-law) a car without me knowing. The same with Jesus, there are laws and christian standard that one has to adhere to for that person to be classified as faithful.

Answer 7

The highest and real faith is humanity. If u can do unto others as u wish they do unto u, that is the highest religion and highest truth. Understanding and uplifting humanity is the highest act of god, everything else is only theory and far fetched.

Answer 8

The original, unchanged revelations given to Abraham and other prophets(like Moses and Jesus ) reaching back to Adam all came from the One True God(The Creator). This common origin explains their similarities in many beliefs and values


However, over time the teachings of the various religions, due to a variety of reasons, have become distorted and mixed with made-man ideas.


The last Prophet and Messenger of God, Muhammad , who is a direct descendant of Abraham through his first born son, Ishmael, was sent with the Last Guidance, Revelation and Testament, the Holy Qur'an(koran) to amend and correct the changes and corruption made to the the "Torah" which was sent to Moses and theTrue Gospel of Jesus.To say the truth ,God preserved all the other Holy Books plainly by preserving His Last Book the Holy Qur'an(koran)which contains the right and the truth of all that was changed in those other Books.


This is why this last Revelation which was sent 1423 years ago has remained unchanged, not even a word or a letter has been altered.


There is not even one word of difference between two Arabic Qur'ans, anywhere in the world. There has been no disagreements in history among Muslims as to what should and should not be in the Qur'an. However, in the case of the Bible, even the most ancient manuscripts conflict with one another so that no two are identical. Footnotes in all modern versions of the Bible prove this fact.


These revisions serve as concrete proofs that all the Biblical books are not at all divinely inspired. This is because it is beyond man's ability to correct the work of his Creator, who alone is Almighty and perfect



It was only natural for Almighty God to preserve the scripture revealed to Prophet Muhammad, because he was the last Prophet and Final Messenger of God.


Islam teaches us that we must pray directly to God without an intermediary and no soul can bear the burden of another and that the nature of humanity is good, and we did not inherit sin from Adam. Each soul comes into being free of sin.in Islam there are no priests or clergy -- each worshipper, man or woman, has a direct relationship with their Merciful Creator -- Almighty God. Since God is the Owner and Sustainer of everything, as well as the only one who can provide true and complete forgiveness, it is completely futile to try to approach Him through anyone else.


The oneness and universality of God's message requires that people accept all the messengers of God. Rejecting one of them amounts to rejecting them all. The Jews reject Jesus's mission and Muhammad's mission; the Christians reject Muhammad's mission; whereas the Muslims accept them all, but reject incorrect historical interpretations and human elements in these missions.


As the Qur'an is the final revelation and Muhammad is the final prophet, humanity is obligated to accept it: "If anyone desires a religion other than Islam, never will it be accepted of him; and in the Hereafter he will be in the ranks of those who have lost all spiritual good" (3:86).


The Final Prophet Muhammad said: "Whoever believes there is no god but God, alone without partner, that Muhammad is His messenger, that Jesus is messenger of God, and that Paradise and Hell are true, shall be received by God into Heaven."


you can do that now as you are reading these lines is to pronounce the two confirmations and attestations of faith, here it is




I BEAR WITNESS THAT THERE IS NO GOD WORTHY OF WORSHIP EXCEPT ALLAH ( ARABIC WORD MEANS ONE GOD-THE CREATOR). AND I BEAR WITNESS THAT MUHAMMAD IS HIS SERVANT AND MESSENGER. I BEAR WITNESS THAT JESUS IS HIS SERVANT AND MESSENGER.



The right picture of lslam is conveyed in the Qur'an, which is exemplified by Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him. The reality is that it is not fair to judge a religion by the actions of its followers alone because there are good and bad followers in every religion. The correct thing to do is to judge a religion by its documented revelation from God and the prophet who brought that revelation.

I encourage Christians and other religions to learn about Islam from Muslim sources and The Basis Of The Muslim Belief and not rely on second hand information which in many cases is distorted or contains a deep seated anti Muslim agenda. This is indeed a more scholarly approach
