Lesson 12: Overview

in

This lesson explores the biblical meaning of living by faith, emphasizing that faith is not simply the beginning of the Christian life but the principle by which believers are to live every day. Students will examine the four biblical passages where the phrase “the just shall live by faith” appears and discover how each passage reveals a different aspect of trusting God. They will learn that living by faith means confidently expecting God’s promises to be fulfilled, growing in dependence upon Him as their knowledge of His Word increases, abandoning self-effort in favor of complete reliance on Christ’s finished work, and developing the patience necessary to endure while waiting on God’s timing. The lesson also addresses the misconception that living by faith eliminates the responsibility to work, demonstrating that Scripture calls believers to faithfully fulfill their responsibilities while trusting God as their provider.
