Faith encompasses belief, but it is so much more. It means to be steady. To obey God with
perseverance. To come before God
with trust. Better translated to
mean faithfulness. Just a sampling
of the sermon from the Rev. David Pileggi, rector of Christ Church,
Jerusalem. His teaching on Jesus
being approached by the Gentile in Luke 11 and marveling at his faith did not
focus on Jesus ministering to the “enemy” centurian, but on what the faith was
in which Jesus marveled. Great day
of worship!
