Now let us go back to Hebrews 11 and let us pick up verse 27 as an example. It is written: “By faith he forsook Egypt, not fearing the wrath of the king [the Pharaoh]: for he endured, as seeing him who is invisible.” It is almost clear that there can be three scenarios here...

We can never see faith, or hear it, or touch it, or smell it, or taste it, because if we do then it is not faith. Faith is substance hoped for, evidence of things not seen. We cannot see it, we cannot sense it with our five senses. So one task of a true Believer,...

Let us go to this Apostle James, and let us read a few verses from his Book. James chpt.2, let us start from verse 20: “But wilt thou know, O vain man, that faith without works is dead? Was not Abraham our father justified by works, when he had offered Isaac his son upon the...

Today is November 22, 1991. We continue with Part V of the message “The Mystery of Reality”, which we subtitled additionally as “The Mystery of Faith.” Now I would like to keep that subtitle almost intact and add only one word: “The Mystery of Faith and Will.” The chief topic will be “Faith versus Works”,...

I have a note here that, in fact, there are two reasons for not bringing up any good fruit unto the Lord… two reasons as I believe: Firstly, what was heard or read or shared was not the Word of God, which alone has the Life in Itself, as we mentioned in the beginning. Maybe...

2Corinthians 4:13, and this verse we have already quoted once or twice, but I would like to repeat it again because there is a great principle involved.

I say a Word of God and that Word falls into the darkness of your heart, two inches, or three … it doesn’t penetrate too deeply. And what happens? Nothing, absolutely nothing … just like with that grain of wheat. Why? It was not watered. The moment that Word of God is watered, it breaks...

First of all the Lord gave us this faith to be saved and, behold, we got saved. How did that happen? We saw the reality of Christ in our spirit. We understood nothing, and we may have felt bad or good, but our salvation did not depend on the state of our soul. In fact,...

So we are in Part B, and we talked about the Creation of God of the plants and seeds. This is also part of His Creation that speaks about faith, about how it is produced, how it multiplies, what means what in the spiritual sense … but He is still creating physical creation. However, for...
