The Foundation of Faith

Faith’s Wisdom

The Creation of the world is clearly seen by the things that are made.

Romans 1:20 NKJV

For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse,

Faith’s Witness - Able

Faith comes to God on His terms. Able came by the blood of the lamb. Genesis 4 - He came as God had prescribed.

Able received the blessing from the Lord. Imputed Righteousness.

Faith’s Walk - Enoch

Faith is Attentive to God’s Word.

Enoch’s testimony is that he walked with God.

His walk with God was pleasing to God.

He was evidently attentive to God’s voice, for he was a prophet.

Jude 14–15 “It was also about these that Enoch, the seventh from Adam, prophesied, saying, “Behold, the Lord comes with ten thousands of his holy ones, to execute judgment on all and to convict all the ungodly of all their deeds of ungodliness that they have committed in such an ungodly way, and of all the harsh things that ungodly sinners have spoken against him.””

Faith Believes God Is, and that He is a Rewarder

Faith’s Work - Noah

Noah Believed God’s Warning

The work of God is to believe on the one he has sent. John 6:27–29 “Do not work for the food that perishes, but for the food that endures to eternal life, which the Son of Man will give to you. For on him God the Father has set his seal.” Then they said to him, “What must we do, to be doing the works of God?” Jesus answered them, “This is the work of God, that you believe in him whom he has sent.””

Noah Built upon God’s Word.

Noah Became Heir of God’s Righteousness
