The bible gives us a defintion of that word too.

Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. (KJV)
Hebrews 11:1


Faith is a great thing. When you pray in faith you will see results. Faith the size of a mustard seed can move moutains.

yes, the size of a mustard seed!

in wof, one must have great faith before God would do anything,
and then too, their god is faith, NOT the God of the bible.

Faith is the other half of our part in a relationship with Him. Faith makes confidence. Faith is the glue that makes it through ruff times. God rewards our faith in Him. God can't do much with someone who has little faith.

Yes, if I remember Jesus's words correctly without looking it up, He said "Be it unto you according to your faith."
