CERTAIN FAITH

They say “faith” is a gift from God. Without “faith” one cannot understand God. I wonder if I have faith. I would not, I presume, be able to discern if the “faith” I have is a direct gift from God. Maybe I have to struggle on my own, to do my part, so to speak, in order to arrive at certitude about matters of faith.

Zeroing in what Jesus taught. If Jesus really is God become human, is there anything Jesus taught that could possibly be in error? If he had a teaching on anything, a surefire way for me to approach “faith” is simply take what he said as Gospel truth. Using what he said as the foundation of what I’m willing to believe and rejecting anything that contradicts it is an effective step to be sure that I tap in on “faith.”
