ENLARGING OUR FAITH “Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.” Hebrews 11:1

God’s CHALLENGE to us in James 2: The “Four Spiritual Laws” for those who want to enlarge faith LIBERTY 1 Corinthians 8:8 LOVE1 Corinthians 8:9 EXPEDIENCY1 Cor 9:20 – 23 SUPREME SACRIFICE 9:24-27 To BE A HERO of faith APPLY – all else is play acting!

THE ROLL CALL OF HEROES Hebrews 11:8ff ABRAHAM- He went out when called to, he looked up, not around at the “stuff” here. SARAH – She positioned herself in her marriage trusting God. Verses 13 – 16 – they saw God’s plan as more real than their present. 1 Corinthians 12:13.

Our Example - “walking” Hebrews 11:20-28 ISAAC - saw spiritual character JACOB – Saw spiritual reality JOSEPH – trusted against the so called “facts” of his prison reality – looked forward 400 yrs MOSES – turned away from all this world had to offer him and went out.
