In the previous articles, the subject of믿음 and how to walk by faith and not by sight were discussed. 말씀은 이렇게 말합니다, that if we have the slightest bit of faith and doubt not, we can move mountains. But how do you get faith according to the Bible? The Bible says in Romans 10:17 that faith comes by hearing and hearing by the Word of God. What does the Bible mean that faith comes by hearing the Word of God?
So then faith comes by hearing
그러므로 믿음은 들음에서 나느니라, 그리고 하나님의 말씀을 듣고 (로마서 10:17)
When you hear something, you make a decision, to either believe it or not. Many people have been convicted of sin and repented when they heard the gospel of Jesus Christ that was preached by a faithful witness of Christ. 어쩌면 당신도 그들 중 하나일지도 모릅니다.
From the moment that you heard the truth of the gospel, the words of God came in power. 하나님의 말씀을 통해, the Holy Spirit convicted you of your sinful state and showed you하나님의 크신 사랑 that He gave His Son Jesus Christ for the world, 당신을 포함하여 (또한 읽어보세요: ‘예수님께서 타락한 인간과 하나님 사이에 회복하신 평화').
This conviction was so strong, that you decided to believe the words and decided 티o repent and surrender yourself to Jesus Christ. By believing the words and obeying the words and by becoming born again, you were reconciled with God by the blood of Jesus Christ.
Hearing the Word of God
After you decided to give up your life and follow Jesus Christ, it was time to get to know Jesus and the Father and start walking with Jesus. How do get to know Jesus and the Father? You will get to know Jesus and the Father through the Word.
When you hear and read the Word of God, your mind will be renewed with the truth of God and you will get to know Him and the will of the Father.
You will hear His words and when you apply His words in your life, you become a doer of the Word and you will walk by what the Word says, according to the will of God and you will walk by faith (또한 읽어보세요: ‘듣는 사람 vs. 행동하는 사람')
The more you hear, 읽다, 공부하다, and meditate on the Word of God, the more you get to know Him, and the more you trust Him and His words.
Your carnal and worldly mind that is enmity against God and won’t submit to God and won’t trust God and won’t obey His will, will be transformed by the renewing of your mind so that you will have the mind of Christ that loves God and trust God and submit to God and obey His will.
How can you trust God if you don’t know God?
But if you don’t spend time in the Word of God and you don’t fellowship with God, how can you get to know God and His will? If you don’t know God how can you trust God?
Become a doer of the Word
After a while you will become confident in the Word. Because of the fact that you believe the Word, there is no doubt. And when doubt tries to enter your mind, you simply tell it to leave your mind! Because now you know the truth; 하나님의 말씀. You know Him.
If you want to get to know Jesus Christ, start reading the gospels of Matthew, 표시, 루크, and Joh). Start reading the Scriptures word by word, and when you are finished with John, then start all over again.
새로운 창조로서, you have been made into the image of God, in the likeness of Jesus Christ. 그러므로, look at how Jesus acted on earth; what Jesus said, and what Jesus did, and follow Him. His words and His actions are an example for you, because Jesus had the same Spirit you have and the same power (권한).
Faith comes by hearing and hearing by the Word of God
하나님의 말씀은 당신의 거울이다, the more time you spend in the Word, the quicker the transformation. By hearing the Word of God, you will get faith and start walking in faith; a manifesting faith (또한 읽어보세요: ‘자신을 시험해 보세요, 당신이 믿음 안에 있는지 여부?').
Therefore get to know your God, so you can fully trust Him and stay in Him. If you stay in Jesus Christ; the Word and obey His commandments, you will walk by faith in love and in the power of God.
