Faith in what God has stated is more sure than any scientific data because we may not be sure of the scientific data
In this episode of 'How it Happens with Colin Cook', Colin dives into the teachings of Paul about righteousness by faith through the life of Abraham. He unpacks the meaning behind Romans 4:16, explaining how salvation is a gift from God that comes through faith, which itself is part of God's grace.
Colin stresses that trying to drum up faith by our own willpower can lead to anxiety and depression, but recognising that faith is a gift from God can bring peace and assurance. He shares personal reflections on how faith, given by God, enables believers to trust in Jesus for their righteousness and salvation. Colin also touches on the common human tendency to project our own unfaithfulness onto God, doubting His promises when things don't go as expected.
He reassures listeners that God's promises are sure, based on His grace and the faith He provides. With a mix of theological insights and personal anecdotes, Colin makes complex spiritual concepts accessible and relatable. He encourages listeners to shift their focus from their own performance to God's grace in Jesus Christ, finding comfort in the certainty of God's promises.
This episode is a must-listen for anyone seeking to deepen their understanding of faith and grace, and to find reassurance in their spiritual journey.
