FOUR KINDS OF BELIEF John 8:24

Introduction FOUR KINDS OF BELIEF The Bible is very specific when it talks about what to believe in and what not to believe in. It is a subject not to be taken lightly. Understanding what the Bible says about belief is important. There are many false teachers in the world, asking us to believe in them and what they teach. May we search the Scriptures to know what is right and what to believe in.

Commanded Belief We must believe in God to be faithful to Him (Heb. 11:6). We must teach belief or faith when instructing others on how to be saved and become a Christian (Mk. 16:15,16). We must be sure that when we believe and what we ask others to believe is what God says and not the teachings of man (1Jn. 4:1). FOUR KINDS OF BELIEF

Beginning Belief There are other religions boasting of ways to heaven other than through Jesus. But this cannot be true (Ac. 4:12; Jn. 3:16). We must not only believe in Christ as a man who lived on the earth but also in His teachings and miracles (Jn. 20:29-31). The Word of God is actually more powerful than miracles (Lk. 16:29-31). FOUR KINDS OF BELIEF

Obedience Belief Biblical faith is more than an intellectual acknowledgement, but a deep conviction about how to live life (Jn. 3:36). In every case of conversion in the NT belief in God and JC was required (Ac. 16:31). Belief preceded repentance and confession of Jesus as Lord (Ac. 2:36,37; 8:37). FOUR KINDS OF BELIEF

Christian Belief Christian belief is the foundation of the Christian life. Our faith must be shown by works (Jas. 2:24,26; Mt. 5:16). Our deep and abiding faith in God and all of His blessings and promises will cause us to share our faith with others (2Cor. 4:13). Our Christian faith (belief) will sustain us until death (2Tim. 1:12; Rev. 2:10). FOUR KINDS OF BELIEF

Conclusion FOUR KINDS OF BELIEF Tonight, we have looked at: commanded belief, beginning belief, obedience belief, and Christian belief. We are to be people of faith, who walk by faith and not by sight (2Cor. 5:7). Act upon your faith and be saved tonight.
