    Types of Subjective Faith

    Reading the Bible declares several types of

    faith that various individuals exhibited.

    Some of these are to be rejected as the Bible

    declares them to be rejected of God.

    Some of these need to be put into practice in

    our personal lives.

    Lets look at some types of subjective faith.

    A Dead Faith

    While not dead physically, our faith has lostany viability in our own lives.

    James 2:17 Even so faith, if it has no works, isdead, being by itself.

    The context reveals that our works offer proof

    of our faith, and our faith causes us torespond with good works for God.

    James 2:26 For just as the body without thespirit is dead, so also faith without works is

    dead.

    A Weak Faith

    Some are not as strong as others.

    We might question things

    Or this might hinder us from doing good. Romans 14:1 Now accept the one who is

    weak in faith

    Romans 14:2 One man has faith that he mayeat all things but he who is weak eats

    vegetables only.

    A Strong Faith

    This makes one confident that they are doing

    the Lords will as He has revealed to us.

    Romans 4:18-21

    A Great Faith

    When someone has a strong faith it is also to

    be viewed as a great faith.

    Luke 7:9 When Jesus heard these things, he

    marveled at him, and turned him about, andsaid unto the people that followed him, I sayunto you, I have not found so great faith, no,not in Israel.

    It is having the confidence that what God willswill be done.

    Conclusion

    These are just a few types of faith. There are many passages of scripture that

    describe the things that faith does for us.

    Faith is a trust that you place yourself into thehands of God for His guidance and protection.

    Hebrews 11:6 For without faith it is

    impossible to please Him, for he who comes

    to God must believe that He is, and that He isa reward of those who diligently seek Him.

    Have you got the right kind of faith?
