“SAVING FAITH”
The faith of the natural man, the unregenerate man, is reasonable,
logical, and often very influential (Matt. 7:21-23); but the faith of
the Christain is a gift of God, a miracle, and is always the producer of
a radical change in those who possess it. A man cannot possibly possess
saving faith whose thinking and attitude has not been radically changed
concerning God and righteousness, man and sin, Christ and grace (II Cor.
5:14-17). The difference between the two kinds of faith is the
difference between shadows and substance, words and reality: natural
faith believes but saving faith knows! Natural faith merely acknowledges
what saving faith experiences.
