From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

New article name goes here new article content ... Faith is one of the topics in human arena which remains debatable and no single Source can claim to exhaust this subject, However here i want to highlight faith of God from Biblical perspective. There is faith in God and faith of God which is purely based on what God has done in the man Christ Jesus, faith of God is more reliable than faith in God which is based on human capability to do go and to please God- faith in God becomes even more unfruitful when it is not embedded in Jesus but in religion . The bible has the following to say about Faith of God. Romans 12:3 says that God has dealt to every man the measure of Faith- this mean that whoever is in Christ Jesus has the same measure of faith, nobody has more faith than the other, what differs from one believer to another is unbelief (a subject matter for another day).This is to mean that you have the same faith that patriarchs of faith mentioned in the Bible had but the level of unbelief may differ.

Philemon 1.6 'That the sharing of your faith may become effective by acknowledgement of every good thing which is you in Christ Jesus' Paul is telling Philemon that it's possible to have effective communication of his faith by acknowledging what is in him in Christ, this simply implies that Philemon did not have a faith problem and had the same measure of faith as Paul but what he needed to do is to acknowledge what Christ had appropriated for him to start enjoying the benefits(Utilizing the faith in him), Paul writing to The Church in Galatia (Galatians 2:20) puts it clear that he is crucified and the lives he was living was by faith in the Son of God. Paul writing to Titus (Titus 1.1) he refers himself as a bondservant of God according to the Faith of God's elect .

In Conclusion believer on Christ Jesus should always Strive to have faith of God and our own faith.
