THE PORTRAIT OF FAITH

About the Book

To a believer, faith in God is a way of life: it is "the victory that has overcome the world" (1 John 5:4). By Faith, we are connected to principles and doctrines of God that facilitate living God-centered life. Everybody needs faith to believe God, obey God and operate God's covenant of protection, provision and preservation. A man without faith has no desire and capacity to be righteous, holy and obedient to God: as it is written, "the just shall live by faith" The Portrait of Faith is the author's contribution of insights on faith; an aspect of man's relationship with God, that is, probably, the most significant fundamental of Christian living. The book traces and finds the root of Faith in the midst of the activities of creation; when God commanded the heaven and the world into existence. It also establishes that everybody has been created in the image of God and equipped, by God, to live by faith. Therefore, in this book, faith is viewed through the prism of trust in God; relying on God's faithfulness; obedience to God; belief in God; mouth and heart harmony; knowledge of the will of God and the operation of the covenant of God.
