What is faith? Is faith a gift? Do I have enough faith for salvation? Am I doing enough? These are questions many believers ask and they are important questions to ask and meditate on. We will examine a few biblical texts where faith is the subject and what it looks like in the person that has true saving faith in God.
Faith, believe, and faithfulness carry the same idea both in biblical Hebrew (what most of the Old Testament was originally written in) and Judean Koine Greek (what the New Testament was originally written in). In biblical Hebrew these words share the same root: אמן amen. Most people are very familiar with this word; we use it at the end of every prayer. Likewise, these three words share the same root word in Judean Koine Greek: peitho pi'-tho "to trust". Both words; Amen, and Pistis (derives from the verb peitho mentioned above) can be described in these words: truth, trust, trustworthy, to be reliable, loyalty.
