It's wonderful to have you with us as we delve into the essence of faith and its role in our justification.

Pastor Colin explains that faith is the profound bond that unites us to Jesus Christ. It's not merely acknowledging the existence of God or the historical fact of Jesus' death and resurrection. Even the Devil is aware of these truths. Instead, what we're aiming to unfold is that genuine faith is akin to the glue in a relationship, something tremendously more powerful than passive belief.

We venture into Hebrews chapter 11, which highlights that faith is dynamically active, manifesting in various forms such as understanding, offering, building, obeying, longing, blessing, and worshipping. Faith is essentially like a fertile tree, constantly bearing new fruit because it's alive with the presence of Christ within us.

Imagine the implications of this living, fruitful faith in our daily lives. How does it reshape our relationships, our approach to life's challenges, and our anticipation of what lies beyond? Today's message, titled 'Faith Possesses Christ Part 1', lays the groundwork for our new series, The Anatomy of Faith.
