WHAT IS THE
SOURCE OF
FAITH?
Jesus
Hebrews 12:2
Class 3
Faith
Let us fix our eyes on
Jesus, the author
and perfecter of our
faith, who for the
joy set before him
endured the cross,
scorning its shame,
and sat down at the
right hand of the
throne of God.
The Word of God
Romans 10:7
Class 3
Faith
Consequently, faith
comes from hearing
the message, and
the message is
heard through the
word of Christ
Class 3
Faith
Faith goes along with the Word of
God, the two can’t be separated
as you grown in the Word, you
will grow in faith.
Hebrews 11:6
Class 3
Faith
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.
John 8:31
Class 3
Faith
To the Jews who had
believed him,
Jesus said, “If you
hold to my
teaching, you are
really my disciples.

Like newborn babies,

WHAT IS THE
PURPOSE OF
FAITH?
Galatians 3:6
Class 3
Faith
Consider Abraham:
“He believed God,
and it was credited
to him as
righteousness.”
Romans 10:10
Class 3
Faith
For it is with your
heart that you
believe and are
justified, and it is
with your month
that you confess
and are saved.
Romans 9:30-32
Class 3
Faith
30 What then shall we say? That
the Gentiles, who did not pursue
righteousness, have obtained it, a
righteousness that is by faith;
31 but Israel, who pursued a law of
righteousness, has not attained it.
32 Why not? Because they
pursued it not by faith but as if it
were by words. They stumbled
over the “stumbling stone.”

HOW IMPORTANT IS
RIGHTEOUSNESS?
Hebrews 11:2
Class 3
Faith
This is what the
ancients were
commended for.
Hebrews 11:5
Class 3
Faith
By faith Enoch was
taken from this life,
so that he did not
experience death;
he could not be
found, because
God had taken him
away. For before
he was taken, he
was commended
as one who
pleased God.
Hebrews 11:24-27
Class 3
Faith
24 By faith Moses, when he had
grown up, refused to be known
as the son of Pharaoh's
daughter.
25 He chose to be mistreated
along with the people of God
rather than to enjoy the
pleasures of sin for a short time.
26He regarded disgrace for the
sake of Christ as of greater
value than the treasures of
Egypt, because he was looking
ahead to his reward.
27 By faith he left Egypt, not
fearing the king's anger; he
persevered because he saw him
who is invisible.
Hebrews 11:31-35
31 By faith the prostitute Rahab, because she
welcomed the spies, was not killed with those who
were disobedient.

Faith
32 And what more shall I say? I do not have time to tell
about Gideon, Barak, Samson, Jephthah, David,
Samuel and the prophets,
33 who through faith conquered kingdoms,
administered justice, and gained what was promised;
who shut the mouths of lions,
34 quenched the fury of the flames, and escaped the
edge of the sword; whose weakness was turned to
strength; and who became powerful in battle and
routed foreign armies.
35 Women received back their dead, raised to life again.
Others were tortured and refused to be released, so
that they might gain a better resurrection.
Hebrews 11:36-40
36 Some faced jeers and flogging, while still others
were chained and put in prison.

37 They were stoned; they were sawed in two; they
were put to death by the sword. They went about in
sheepskins and goatskins, destitute, persecuted and
mistreated—
38 the world was not worthy of them. They wandered in
deserts and mountains, and in caves and holes in
the ground.
39 These were all commended for their faith, yet none
of them received what had been promised. 40God
had planned something better for us so that only
together with us would they be made perfect.
Matthew 6:33
Class 3
Faith
But seek first his
kingdom and his
righteousness, and all
these things will be
given to you as well.

8 In Lystra there sat a
man crippled in his
feet, who was lame
from birth and had
never walked.
9 He listened to Paul as
he was speaking.
Paul looked directly
at him, saw that he
had faith to be healed
10 and called out,
"Stand up on your
feet!" At that, the man
jumped up and began
to walk.

household."

God.

That is, that you and I
may be mutually
encouraged by each
others faith.

man is justified by
faith apart from
observing the law.

blessing given to
Abraham might come
to the Gentiles

HOW DO YOU
INCREASE YOUR
FAITH
Mark 6:45-51
Class 3
Faith
45 Immediately Jesus made his
disciples get into the boat and go
on ahead of him to Bethsaida, while
he dismissed the crowd.
46 After leaving them, he went up on a
mountainside to pray.
47 When evening came, the boat was
in the middle of the lake, and he
was alone on land.
48 He saw the disciples straining at
the oars, because the wind was
against them. About the fourth
watch of the night he went out to
them, walking on the lake. He was
about to pass by them,
Mark 6:49-51
Class 3
Faith
49 but when they saw him
walking on the lake, they
thought he was a ghost.
They cried out,
50 because they all saw him
and were terrified.
Immediately he spoke to them
and said, "Take courage! It
is I. Don't be afraid."
51 Then he climbed into the
boat with them, and the
wind died down. They
were completely amazed,
52for they had not
understood about the
loaves; their hearts were
hardened.
Romans 10:17
Class 3
Faith
Consequently, faith
comes from hearing
the message, and the
message is heard
through the word of
Christ.
