FACTS OF FAITH

Pastor Rick Jackson [inspired by Pastor David McCoy’s message “Rules of Faith”]

 

I. FAITH IS LOGICAL [Acts 17:2, 18:4, 19, 24:25; Rm. 12:1]

 

1. It is Logical to Believe Creation Requires a Creator [Rm. 1:18-22]

 

2. It is Logical to Believe a God that Cannot Lie [Titus 1:2, Is. 1:18, 1 Peter 3:15]

 

3. It is Logical to believe a Book Inspired by a God that Cannot Lie [Hebrews 5:14, 2 Tm. 3:15-17]

 

II. FAITH IS NOT COMFORTABLE [Heb. 11:13, 25, 35-40]

 

1.  It is Not Comfortable to Fight the Flesh [James 4:1-3]

 

2. It is Not Comfortable to Fight the World [James 4:4-6]

 

3. It is Not Comfortable to Fight the Devil [James 4:7-10]

 

No, it is not comfortable, but, it is right.

 

III. FAITH IS NOT NEGOTIABLE [Heb. 11:6]

 

1. Salvation is by Faith – period! [Rm. 11:6, Galatians 2:16]

 

“We believe that salvation is by grace. Plus nothing and minus nothing. The conditions to salvation are repentance and faith.”

 

2. Sanctification is by Faith [Jn. 17:17, Ephesians 5:26, 1 Thessalonians 4:3-4, Titus 2:11-15]

 

3. (Acceptable) Service is by Faith [Deuteronomy 10:12, Joshua 24:14-15, Eph. 6:5-9, Col. 3:23-24, Rm. 12:1]
