'Faith' in the Bible

For indeed we have had glad tidings presented to us, even as they also; but the word of the report did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in those who heard.

Wherefore, leaving the word of the beginning of the Christ, let us go on to what belongs to full growth, not laying again a foundation of repentance from dead works and faith in God,

that ye be not sluggish, but imitators of those who through faith and patience have been inheritors of the promises.

let us approach with a true heart, in full assurance of faith, sprinkled as to our hearts from a wicked conscience, and washed as to our body with pure water.

But the just shall live by faith; and, if he draw back, my soul does not take pleasure in him.

But we are not drawers back to perdition, but of faith to saving the soul.

Now faith is the substantiating of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen.

By faith we apprehend that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that that which is seen should not take its origin from things which appear.

By faith Abel offered to God a more excellent sacrifice than Cain, by which he obtained testimony of being righteous, God bearing testimony to his gifts, and by it, having died, he yet speaks.

By faith Enoch was translated that he should not see death; and was not found, because God had translated him; for before his translation he has the testimony that he had pleased God.

But without faith it is impossible to please him. For he that draws near to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them who seek him out.

By faith, Noah, oracularly warned concerning things not yet seen, moved with fear, prepared an ark for the saving of his house; by which he condemned the world, and became heir of the righteousness which is according to faith.

By faith Abraham, being called, obeyed to go out into the place which he was to receive for an inheritance, and went out, not knowing where he was going.

By faith he sojourned as a stranger in the land of promise as a foreign country, having dwelt in tents with Isaac and Jacob, the heirs with him of the same promise;

By faith also Sarah herself received strength for the conception of seed, and that beyond a seasonable age; since she counted him faithful who promised.

All these died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them from afar off and embraced them, and confessed that they were strangers and sojourners on the earth.

By faith Abraham, when tried, offered up Isaac, and he who had received to himself the promises offered up his only begotten son,

By faith Isaac blessed Jacob and Esau concerning things to come.

By faith Jacob when dying blessed each of the sons of Joseph, and worshipped on the top of his staff.

By faith Joseph when dying called to mind the going forth of the sons of Israel, and gave commandment concerning his bones.

By faith Moses, being born, was hid three months by his parents, because they saw the child beautiful; and they did not fear the injunction of the king.

By faith Moses, when he had become great, refused to be called son of Pharaoh's daughter;

By faith he left Egypt, not fearing the wrath of the king; for he persevered, as seeing him who is invisible.

By faith he celebrated the passover and the sprinkling of the blood, that the destroyer of the firstborn might not touch them.

By faith they passed through the Red sea as through dry land; of which the Egyptians having made trial were swallowed up.

By faith the walls of Jericho fell, having been encircled for seven days.

By faith Rahab the harlot did not perish along with the unbelieving, having received the spies in peace.

who by faith overcame kingdoms, wrought righteousness, obtained promises, stopped lions' mouths,

And these all, having obtained witness through faith, did not receive the promise,

looking stedfastly on Jesus the leader and completer of faith: who, in view of the joy lying before him, endured the cross, having despised the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.

Remember your leaders who have spoken to you the word of God; and considering the issue of their conversation, imitate their faith.
