Faith is the confident belief or trust in the truth or trustworthiness of a person, idea, or thing. The word faith can refer to a religion itself or to religion in general.

As with trust, faith involves a concept of future events or outcomes, and is used conversely for a belief "not resting on logical proof or material evidence." Informal usage of the word faith can be quite broad, and may be used in place of trust or belief.

Faith is often used in a religious context, as in theology, where it almost universally refers to a trusting belief in a transcendent reality, or else in a Supreme Being and/or this being's role in the order of transcendent, spiritual things.

Faith is in general the persuasion of the mind that a certain statement is true. It is the belief and the assent of the mind to the truth of what is declared, based on the declarer's authority and truthfulness. The English word faith is dated from 1200–50, from the Latin fidem, or fidēs, meaning trust, akin to fīdere, which means to trust.

A. faith is used to stop people from asking questions they know it doesnt make sense, but all they have to say is if you dont believe it you will burn for eternity i.e. where faith comes into the picture the more you question it, the less you believe it

Can faith ever be convinced that the certainty of it might just be misplaced judgment?
Q. After all, different faiths don't agree with each other about the identity of the God they swear to have faith in? So this leaves only 2 alternatives to choose from. Every faith only exists because of misplaced judgment with the exception of one of them. Or all faiths only exist because of misplaced judgment. Which scenario might be correct?

How strong was the faith of the Christian martyrs in the early centuries?
Q. Many of the early Christian martyrs were either fed to the lions, burned, crucified on crosses, beheaded, or hanged. It seems as though they weren't afraid of death. The early church even honored the marytrs with Roman priests celebrating Mass over the tombs of the martyrs in the catacombs. So how strong was their faith?

A. you cannot get anything stronger then the will to die for a cause. We still have those people around the world today. The regular media does not wish to write or report of atrocities done onto the Christian martyrs today.

Quotations about faith

  • Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. For by it the elders obtained a good report. Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear.
