The Christian life is like a race (cf. Hebrews 12:1).
Faith is the key to staying in the race (cf. Hebrews 10:38).
1. What is faith?
‘Faith is believing that what God says is true and acting on it’.
- Faith… believes God exists (11:1b, 3)
- Faith… trusts in God’s promise of heaven (11:1a)
2. Why do we need faith?
- It pleases God
- It saves us
