What is the origin of faith?

Speaker : John Reim

Hebrews 11:3 (Listen)

By faith we understand that the universe was created by the word of God, so that what is seen was not made out of things that are visible.

(ESV)

2 Corinthians 4:4–6 (Listen)

In their case the god of this world has blinded the minds of the unbelievers, to keep them from seeing the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God. For what we proclaim is not ourselves, but Jesus Christ as Lord, with ourselves as your servants1 for Jesus’ sake. For God, who said, “Let light shine out of darkness,” has shone in our hearts to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.
