Faith and Feeling

We must not let feeling affect faith, but let faith affect feeling. We have faith regardless of how we feel, but when we have faith, we will eventually feel what we believe.

Our faith makes our entire being feel full of life and love. It makes us feel happy, not depressed. We feel this way regardless of what happens, because we have faith, and faith determines how we feel. And we know our faith will also determine what happens.

Because we have faith, we are full of hope and full of purpose. We do not wait for something good to happen before we feel this way, and if something bad happens, we do not suddenly feel the opposite. But because we have faith, we feel good, and good things will happen.

The Faithless affirm a counterfeit version of faith. This is because they have no faith, and in order to hide this fact, they must invent a different definition of faith, so that they can take the false religion that they have and call it faith.

Since they are faithless, they cannot have something that only those who have faith can possess. They must take something that even atheists and satanists can have, and call that faith instead, so that they can insist that they also have faith.

And so the Faithless replace true faith with acceptance and endurance. To them, faith is something that accepts circumstances and endures suffering. You cannot expect faith to change anything except your own attitude toward your environment. This is the same kind of faith that the pagans teach.

Since the pagans have no God in their lives, their faith cannot change anything except their own attitude and perspective. Faithless Christianity, or counterfeit Christianity, has adopted this pagan view of faith and made it their orthodoxy.

It is possible to accept your environment and endure your circumstances, but have no faith at all. If someone merely accepts and endures his environment without expecting God to change this environment for him, or to enable him to overcome his circumstances, then this is not faith.

Faith does not just accept and endure. Faith dominates the environment and overcomes circumstances. Faith can throw a mountain out of the way. Faith cares nothing about the natural order and commands a tree to be planted in the sea. Faith is the confidence of God. The result of faith is victory, not merely a moral victory, but a spiritual and material victory.
