Praise the Lord! Salvation has been paid in full! Jesus cried, "tetelestai" when the sins of the world had been paid in full! Now for that payment to be credited to anyone's sin debt, they must believe that Jesus is God and Savior! Then His blood will wash away all of their sins! God gave mankind His very best gift ever! Praise the Lord! Praise the Lord!

Isaiah 1:18, "Come now, and let us reason together, saith the Lord: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool."

This seems like an innocent claim but it can turn out to have a pretty bad impact on people.

1. An examination of the Greek term “pistis” (translated as “faith” in the NT) shows that it does not include the idea of “without evidence.”
2. In the Bible, God frequently calls people to have faith as a direct response to evidence.
3. Even our central belief, the resurrection of Jesus, was demonstrated with several proofs. “He presented himself alive to them after his suffering by many proofs, appearing to them during forty days and speaking about the kingdom of God.” Acts‬ ‭1‬:‭3‬ ‭ESV‬‬
- The empty tomb
- Multiple appearances of Jesus in front of individuals and crowds.
- The confirmation of prophecy (road to Emmaus)
- Jesus presenting His wounds for inspection.
Etc.
4. The danger of teaching that faith is belief without evidence is that it can result in people actually thinking we have zero evidence for the Christian faith!
5. Romans 1 shows that even belief in God’s existence is something required of us because of the overwhelming evidence.
6. Christians who claim faith is belief without evidence are contradicting Scripture and unintentionally feeding into the excuses of those who deny there is any evidence for Christianity. That’s a pretty significant mistake.
