[QUOTE="AV1611VET, post: 77623917, member: 152669"] Faith leads to proof. [COLOR=rgb(41, 105, 176)][B]Hebrews 11:1 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.[/B][/COLOR] You start out hoping for it, and it eventually leads to you getting your answer. If you're going to sit in a chair, you hope that chair will hold you up, like it did a thousand times before. You then sit down on it, and sure enough, it held. Now your faith has led to sight, and there has come a time when you no longer "walked by faith" and are now "walking [sitting actually] by sight." But not all of the consequences of faith are positive. Thalidomide is a good example. You have faith that Thalidomide will serve as a prenatal wonder drug. Then, when the "evidence of things not seen" shows up, you realize your faith was in vain. In short, the "substance of things hoped for is the test," and the "evidence of things not seen" is the outcome. Kinda like this: Faith is the substance of things hoped for, leading up to the evidence of things not seen. [/QUOTE]
