Dave: Atheists will often deride Christians for having “faith” because it goes
against the evidence.Jeff: It’s not only atheists – some Christians say, “You just have to believe! Just
have faith” and suggest that we shouldn’t look for evidence.Dave: But is that what faith is? Blind ignorant belief?
Jeff: The Bible tells us what the Christian definition of faith is.
Dave: Hebrews 11:1 says: “faith is confidence in what we hope for…”
Jeff: Where do you derive confidence from? Your imagination?
Dave: No! You derive confidence from THE FACTS. From evidence.
Jeff: From seeing what God has done in the past, we know what he’ll do in the
future.Dave: When we look at the logical information available to us we can have…
Jeff: GREAT CONFIDENCE in God, and his existence, and his promises. Just look to
the data.Dave: Faith isn’t some magic fairy dust that you sprinkle on your heart just to feel
good.Jeff: No. Biblical faith is a realistic confidence in our belief, because the evidence
actually exists.
