Faith

Faith
In the book of Acts we read this incident between Paul and Silas and their jailor,
“The jailer called for lights, rushed in and fell trembling before Paul and Silas.  
He then brought them out and asked, “Sirs, what must I do to be saved?” 
They replied, “Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved—you and your household.” Acts 16:30,31.
The writer of Hebrews make these two statements,
"Now faith is being sure of what we hope for 
and certain of what we do not see." 
                                              Hebrews 11:1
"And without faith it is impossible to please God, 
because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists 
and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him." 
                                                                              Hebrews 11:6
Blaise Pascal said,
“In faith there is enough light for those who want to believe 
and enough shadows to blind those who don't.”
                                                                     Blaise Pascal.
Thomas Aquinas wrote,
“To one who has faith, no explanation is necessary. 
To one without faith, no explanation is possible.” 
                                                                                Thomas Aquinas.
So my question to you is when it comes to Christ Jesus, what do you believe?
