According to the Zondervan Encyclopedia of Bible Words, the following is written with regards to Christian Faith:
"Few words are more central to the Christian message or more often used to describe Christian experience than 'belief' and 'faith'. Yet these words are often corrupted by a misunderstanding of their Biblical meaning. People today may use "faith" to indicate what is possible but uncertain. The Bible uses "faith" in ways that link it with what is assuredly and certainly true. Christians may sometimes speak of "believing," as if it were merely a subjective effort, as if our act of faith or strength of faith were the issue. But the Bible shifts our attention from subjective experience and centers it on the object of our faith - God Himself.
It is exciting to look into the Scriptures and there rediscover the full meaning of faith and belief. There we grasp the great promise that faith holds out to all mankind: transformation through a personal relationship with God in Jesus Christ."
The Christian faith stands on this promise through an assurance that in Christ Jesus we can all have a relationship with God.
