It seems to me that once the HS makes us realize that the work of Jesus Christ was for our behalf we then get directed to Scripture to believe what all it says using it as the source of faith and conduct.<BR/><BR/>I remember as a child I read the NT during Easter season ( I was an RC kid), never understood it because I was using it to gain favor with God.<BR/><BR/>Then after the Gospel, I returned to it with a different enthusiasm.LPChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11352627830833515548noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15967712.post-33261967942462634402007-03-22T22:32:00.000+11:002007-03-22T22:32:00.000+11:00Good post.

An old confession I subscribe to, The 1689 London Baptist Confession, defines saving faith to include:<BR/><BR/>"By this faith a Christian believeth to be true whatsoever is revealed in the Word for the authority of God himself, and also apprehendeth an excellency therein above all other writings and all things in the world, as it bears forth the glory of God in his attributes, the excellency of Christ in his nature and offices, and the power and fullness of the Holy Spirit in his workings and operations: and so is enabled to cast his soul upon the truth thus believed; and also acteth differently upon that which each particular passage thereof containeth; yielding obedience to the commands, trembling at the threatenings, and embracing the promises of God for this life and that which is to come; but the principal acts of saving faith have immediate relation to Christ, accepting, receiving, and resting upon him alone for justification, sanctification, and eternal life, by virtue of the covenant of grace. (Acts 24:14; Psalms 27:7-10; Psalms 119:72; 2 Timothy 1:12; John 14:14; Isaiah 66:2; Hebrews 11:13; John 1:12; Acts 16:31; Galatians 2:20; Acts 15:11)"<BR/><BR/>I also think belief in the Scripute is a gift. Those that have gone before us believe the same.<BR/><BR/>J. K.J. K.

What you say there is insightful - thank you for blogging that piece.<BR/><BR/> Believing Scripture Alone becomes a necessary result when the Gospel has been apprehended. The heart of the Solas is indeed the Gospel - the Cross, all make sense only in the Gospel.<BR/><BR/>Thank God for his gifts!LPChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11352627830833515548noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15967712.post-47334862753638989872007-03-15T11:44:00.000+11:002007-03-15T11:44:00.000+11:00I discussed this a bit in a blog back in February ...I discussed this a bit in a blog back in February - take a look at http://timstheologicaltoolbox.blogspot.com/2007/02/understanding-things-of-god.html when you have a chance.<BR/><BR/>Peace!Tim Kuehnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18160344966489703206noreply@blogger.com
