'Faith' in the Bible

By faith the walls of Jericho fell down after being encircled by the Israelites for seven days.

By faith Rahab the prostitute received the spies in peace and didn’t perish with those who disobeyed.

who by faith conquered kingdoms, administered justice, obtained promises, shut the mouths of lions,

All these were approved through their faith, but they did not receive what was promised,

keeping our eyes on Jesus, the source and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy that lay before Him endured a cross and despised the shame and has sat down at the right hand of God’s throne.

Remember your leaders who have spoken God’s word to you. As you carefully observe the outcome of their lives, imitate their faith.

knowing that the testing of your faith produces endurance.

But let him ask in faith without doubting. For the doubter is like the surging sea, driven and tossed by the wind.

My brothers, do not show favoritism as you hold on to the faith in our glorious Lord Jesus Christ.

Listen, my dear brothers: Didn’t God choose the poor in this world to be rich in faith and heirs of the kingdom that He has promised to those who love Him?

What good is it, my brothers, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? Can his faith save him?

In the same way faith, if it doesn’t have works, is dead by itself.

But someone will say, “You have faith, and I have works.” Show me your faith without works, and I will show you faith from my works.

Foolish man! Are you willing to learn that faith without works is useless?

You see that faith was active together with his works, and by works, faith was perfected.

You see that a man is justified by works and not by faith alone.

For just as the body without the spirit is dead, so also faith without works is dead.

The prayer of faith will save the sick person, and the Lord will restore him to health; if he has committed sins, he will be forgiven.

You are being protected by God’s power through faith for a salvation that is ready to be revealed in the last time.

so that the genuineness of your faith—more valuable than gold, which perishes though refined by fire—may result in praise, glory, and honor at the revelation of Jesus Christ.

because you are receiving the goal of your faith, the salvation of your souls.

who through Him are believers in God, who raised Him from the dead and gave Him glory, so that your faith and hope are in God.

Resist him and be firm in the faith, knowing that the same sufferings are being experienced by your fellow believers throughout the world.

Simeon Peter, a slave and an apostle of Jesus Christ:To those who have obtained a faith of equal privilege with ours through the righteousness of our God and Savior Jesus Christ.

For this very reason, make every effort to supplement your faith with goodness, goodness with knowledge,

because whatever has been born of God conquers the world. This is the victory that has conquered the world: our faith.

Dear friend, you are showing faithfulness by whatever you do for the brothers, especially when they are strangers.

Dear friends, although I was eager to write you about the salvation we share, I found it necessary to write and exhort you to contend for the faith that was delivered to the saints once for all.

But you, dear friends, as you build yourselves up in your most holy faith and pray in the Holy Spirit,

I know where you live—where Satan’s throne is! And you are holding on to My name and did not deny your faith in Me, even in the days of Antipas, My faithful witness who was killed among you, where Satan lives.

If anyone is destined for captivity,into captivity he goes.If anyone is to be killed with a sword,with a sword he will be killed.This demands the perseverance and faith of the saints.

This demands the perseverance of the saints, who keep God’s commands and their faith in Jesus.”
