1. Disciple Building Sharing A69 Live a life of faith, What is faith? People cannot please God unless they have faith. Examples of faith, God’s actions from beginning to end cannot be comprehenedby humans

2. Preface • The purpose of the Christian life is to become a true disciple, but if we want to enter the realm of Bible from the world. We can not carry a lot of the burden of the world and world’s thoughts. We cannot spread our wings because God has His uniqueness. If we want to be disciples of God is to know God’s will and follow God’s method. There is no other way, because He expresses it as the unique way, the truth, and life in the Bible. And there is no other way.

3. What is faith • Heb. 11:1 “Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.” • From the above scriptures, we can know what faith is, but it is the most important cornerstone of everything, which means that no matter what we do, if we analyze it carefully and finally, it is based on faith. • Characteristics of the faith: things invisible to the naked eye

4. People cannot please God unless they have faith • Heb. 11:6 “But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him.” • Ecclesiastes 2:26 To the person who pleases him, God gives wisdom, knowledge and happiness, but to the sinner he gives the task of gathering and storing up wealth to hand it over to the one who pleases God. This too is meaningless, a chasing after the wind.

5. Examples of faith • Gen. 1:1 “In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.” • Let us explain how God created the heavens and the earth. If we use current scientific knowledge to prove it, then we will go from archaeology to various places to dig out human remains, fossils collected in research, and various specimens on the sea floor. With the current living animals, we can know the evolution of species, and we can check the age, we can know the age of the earth, and then we can understand how the world is made

6. God’s actions from beginning to end cannot be comprehended by humans • Ecclesiastes 3:1111 He has made everything beautiful in its time. Also He has put eternity in their hearts, except that no one can find out the work that God does from beginning to end. • However, from the above scriptures, we know that people cannot understand God’s actions by our own ability.

7. Enter Into all truth • John. 16:13 “However, when He, the Spirit of truth, has come, He will guide you into all truth; for He will not speak on His own authority, but whatever He hears He will speak; and He will tell you things to come. ” • 1Cor. 2:13 “These things we also speak, not in words which man's wisdom teaches but which the Holy Spirit teaches, comparing spiritual things with spiritual.” • This is the attitude that God instructs us to have when dealing with the words of the Bible, so let us try to use our example to see

8. Examples of faith • First of all, the attitude we should have. The first step is to accept that this is God’s word, which is really the truth. Second, we can know from this word that God is the only Creator, because if Earth has been created by God, There is no second God who can do the work of creation, and then we have to search for God’s words in the Bible regarding creation. Whether it is more appropriate than our scientific research, please see the next page.

9. God's questions • Job 38:66 To what were its foundations fastened? Or who laid its cornerstone,Job 38:1616 “Have you entered the springs of the sea? Or have you walked in search of the depths?Job 38:1919 “Where is the way to the dwelling of light? And darkness, where is its place,Job 38:2525 “Who has divided a channel for the overflowing water, Or a path for the thunderbolt,

10. God's questions • From the words of God above, we can know that only creative talents can ask such appropriate questions. We never dreamed that the earth needs a foundation, and the earth needs stable stones. How to get to the source of the sea, and who else can be in the middle, there is a place to live and darkness also exists. When it rains, there is still a way when it rains. Similarly, thunder and lightning also need to pave the way.

11. Live a life of faith • Through the above discussion, we can know that the scientific method will let us understand and know the age of the earth, but from God’s question, what we know is much deeper, farther, and broader, and is beyond our imagination. If we use this method to studying the Bible, we will know how to fear God, because he is not we can restrict with the principles of our small world. We can also thank him for giving us the Bible so that we can read him and experience him.
