And if this is how God clothes the wild grass, which is here today and tomorrow is tossed into the fire to heat the oven, won't he clothe you even more, you people of little faith?

When Jesus heard this he was amazed and said to those who followed him, "I tell you the truth, I have not found such faith in anyone in Israel!

But he said to them, "Why are you cowardly, you people of little faith?" Then he got up and rebuked the winds and the sea, and it was dead calm.

Just then some people brought to him a paralytic lying on a stretcher. When Jesus saw their faith, he said to the paralytic, "Have courage, son! Your sins are forgiven."

But when Jesus turned and saw her he said, "Have courage, daughter! Your faith has made you well." And the woman was healed from that hour.

Then he touched their eyes saying, "Let it be done for you according to your faith."

Immediately Jesus reached out his hand and caught him, saying to him, "You of little faith, why did you doubt?"

Then Jesus answered her, "Woman, your faith is great! Let what you want be done for you." And her daughter was healed from that hour.

When Jesus learned of this, he said, "You who have such little faith! Why are you arguing among yourselves about having no bread?

He told them, "It was because of your little faith. I tell you the truth, if you have faith the size of a mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, 'Move from here to there,' and it will move; nothing will be impossible for you."

Jesus answered them, "I tell you the truth, if you have faith and do not doubt, not only will you do what was done to the fig tree, but even if you say to this mountain, 'Be lifted up and thrown into the sea,' it will happen.

When Jesus saw their faith, he said to the paralytic, "Son, your sins are forgiven."

And he said to them, "Why are you cowardly? Do you still not have faith?"

He said to her, "Daughter, your faith has made you well. Go in peace, and be healed of your disease."

Jesus said to him, "Go, your faith has healed you." Immediately he regained his sight and followed him on the road.

Jesus said to them, "Have faith in God.

When Jesus saw their faith he said, "Friend, your sins are forgiven."

When Jesus heard this, he was amazed at him. He turned and said to the crowd that followed him, "I tell you, not even in Israel have I found such faith!"

He said to the woman, "Your faith has saved you; go in peace."

Then he said to them, "Where is your faith?" But they were afraid and amazed, saying to one another, "Who then is this? He commands even the winds and the water, and they obey him!"

Then he said to her, "Daughter, your faith has made you well. Go in peace."

And if this is how God clothes the wild grass, which is here today and tomorrow is tossed into the fire to heat the oven, how much more will he clothe you, you people of little faith!

The apostles said to the Lord, "Increase our faith!"

So the Lord replied, "If you had faith the size of a mustard seed, you could say to this black mulberry tree, 'Be pulled out by the roots and planted in the sea,' and it would obey you.

Then he said to the man, "Get up and go your way. Your faith has made you well."

I tell you, he will give them justice speedily. Nevertheless, when the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on earth?"

Jesus said to him, "Receive your sight; your faith has healed you."

but I have prayed for you, Simon, that your faith may not fail. When you have turned back, strengthen your brothers."

And on the basis of faith in Jesus' name, his very name has made this man -- whom you see and know -- strong. The faith that is through Jesus has given him this complete health in the presence of you all.

The proposal pleased the entire group, so they chose Stephen, a man full of faith and of the Holy Spirit, with Philip, Prochorus, Nicanor, Timon, Parmenas, and Nicolas, a Gentile convert to Judaism from Antioch.

The word of God continued to spread, the number of disciples in Jerusalem increased greatly, and a large group of priests became obedient to the faith.

because he was a good man, full of the Holy Spirit and of faith, and a significant number of people were brought to the Lord.

But the magician Elymas (for that is the way his name is translated) opposed them, trying to turn the proconsul away from the faith.

This man was listening to Paul as he was speaking. When Paul stared intently at him and saw he had faith to be healed,

They strengthened the souls of the disciples and encouraged them to continue in the faith, saying, "We must enter the kingdom of God through many persecutions."

When they arrived and gathered the church together, they reported all the things God had done with them, and that he had opened a door of faith for the Gentiles.

and he made no distinction between them and us, cleansing their hearts by faith.

So the churches were being strengthened in the faith and were increasing in number every day.

testifying to both Jews and Greeks about repentance toward God and faith in our Lord Jesus.

Some days later, when Felix arrived with his wife Drusilla, who was Jewish, he sent for Paul and heard him speak about faith in Christ Jesus.

to open their eyes so that they turn from darkness to light and from the power of Satan to God, so that they may receive forgiveness of sins and a share among those who are sanctified by faith in me.'

Therefore keep up your courage, men, for I have faith in God that it will be just as I have been told.

Through him we have received grace and our apostleship to bring about the obedience of faith among all the Gentiles on behalf of his name.

First of all, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for all of you, because your faith is proclaimed throughout the whole world.

that is, that we may be mutually comforted by one another's faith, both yours and mine.

For the righteousness of God is revealed in the gospel from faith to faith, just as it is written, "The righteous by faith will live."

God publicly displayed him at his death as the mercy seat accessible through faith. This was to demonstrate his righteousness, because God in his forbearance had passed over the sins previously committed.

Where, then, is boasting? It is excluded! By what principle? Of works? No, but by the principle of faith!

For we consider that a person is declared righteous by faith apart from the works of the law.

Since God is one, he will justify the circumcised by faith and the uncircumcised through faith.

Do we then nullify the law through faith? Absolutely not! Instead we uphold the law.

But to the one who does not work, but believes in the one who declares the ungodly righteous, his faith is credited as righteousness.

Is this blessedness then for the circumcision or also for the uncircumcision? For we say, "faith was credited to Abraham as righteousness."

And he received the sign of circumcision as a seal of the righteousness that he had by faith while he was still uncircumcised, so that he would become the father of all those who believe but have never been circumcised, that they too could have righteousness credited to them.

And he is also the father of the circumcised, who are not only circumcised, but who also walk in the footsteps of the faith that our father Abraham possessed when he was still uncircumcised.

For the promise to Abraham or to his descendants that he would inherit the world was not fulfilled through the law, but through the righteousness that comes by faith.

For if they become heirs by the law, faith is empty and the promise is nullified.

For this reason it is by faith so that it may be by grace, with the result that the promise may be certain to all the descendants -- not only to those who are under the law, but also to those who have the faith of Abraham, who is the father of us all

Without being weak in faith, he considered his own body as dead (because he was about one hundred years old) and the deadness of Sarah's womb.

He did not waver in unbelief about the promise of God but was strengthened in faith, giving glory to God.

Therefore, since we have been declared righteous by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ,

through whom we have also obtained access by faith into this grace in which we stand, and we rejoice in the hope of God's glory.

What shall we say then? -- that the Gentiles who did not pursue righteousness obtained it, that is, a righteousness that is by faith,

Why not? Because they pursued it not by faith but (as if it were possible) by works. They stumbled over the stumbling stone,

But the righteousness that is by faith says: "Do not say in your heart, 'Who will ascend into heaven?'" (that is, to bring Christ down)

But what does it say? "The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart" (that is, the word of faith that we preach),

Consequently faith comes from what is heard, and what is heard comes through the preached word of Christ.

Granted! They were broken off because of their unbelief, but you stand by faith. Do not be arrogant, but fear!

For by the grace given to me I say to every one of you not to think more highly of yourself than you ought to think, but to think with sober discernment, as God has distributed to each of you a measure of faith.

And we have different gifts according to the grace given to us. If the gift is prophecy, that individual must use it in proportion to his faith.

Now receive the one who is weak in the faith, and do not have disputes over differing opinions.

The faith you have, keep to yourself before God. Blessed is the one who does not judge himself by what he approves.

But the man who doubts is condemned if he eats, because he does not do so from faith, and whatever is not from faith is sin.

but now is disclosed, and through the prophetic scriptures has been made known to all the nations, according to the command of the eternal God, to bring about the obedience of faith --

so that your faith would not be based on human wisdom but on the power of God.

to another faith by the same Spirit, and to another gifts of healing by the one Spirit,

And if I have prophecy, and know all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have all faith so that I can remove mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing.

And now these three remain: faith, hope, and love. But the greatest of these is love.

And if Christ has not been raised, then our preaching is futile and your faith is empty.

And if Christ has not been raised, your faith is useless; you are still in your sins.

Stay alert, stand firm in the faith, show courage, be strong.

I do not mean that we rule over your faith, but we are workers with you for your joy, because by faith you stand firm.

But since we have the same spirit of faith as that shown in what has been written, "I believed; therefore I spoke," we also believe, therefore we also speak.

for we live by faith, not by sight.

But as you excel in everything -- in faith, in speech, in knowledge, and in all eagerness and in the love from us that is in you -- make sure that you excel in this act of kindness too.

Nor do we boast beyond certain limits in the work done by others, but we hope that as your faith continues to grow, our work may be greatly expanded among you according to our limits,

Put yourselves to the test to see if you are in the faith; examine yourselves! Or do you not recognize regarding yourselves that Jesus Christ is in you -- unless, indeed, you fail the test!

They were only hearing, "The one who once persecuted us is now proclaiming the good news of the faith he once tried to destroy."

And the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the Gentiles by faith, proclaimed the gospel to Abraham ahead of time, saying, "All the nations will be blessed in you."

Now it is clear no one is justified before God by the law, because the righteous one will live by faith.

But the law is not based on faith, but the one who does the works of the law will live by them.

in order that in Christ Jesus the blessing of Abraham would come to the Gentiles, so that we could receive the promise of the Spirit by faith.

Now before faith came we were held in custody under the law, being kept as prisoners until the coming faith would be revealed.

Thus the law had become our guardian until Christ, so that we could be declared righteous by faith.

But now that faith has come, we are no longer under a guardian.

For in Christ Jesus you are all sons of God through faith.

For through the Spirit, by faith, we wait expectantly for the hope of righteousness.

For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision carries any weight -- the only thing that matters is faith working through love.

So then, whenever we have an opportunity, let us do good to all people, and especially to those who belong to the family of faith.

For this reason, because I have heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love for all the saints,
