any chance youre thinking of going ice fish ing this weekend if so heres an interesting question for you what requires more faith walking out on twoinch thick ice or walking on two feet of ice the obvious answer would seem to be the two inches of ice trouble is this answer indi cates a fallacious idea as to what faith really is walking on two inch thick ice is in reality presumption presumption according to websters dictionary is supposition blind headstrong or unreasonable adventurousness what we call faith under these circumstances is more like hope i hope the ice will hold me no matter how hard we try to believe the two- inch ice will hold wed better be ready for a dunking faith on the other hand depends on the trustworthiness of its object so two feet of ice allows for much more faith than does two inch es olive branch wwwtobca youve never experienced church like this when sundays 1000 am where angus glen golf country club kennedy rd just north off major mackenzie lead pastor

t 10 rm rev don bell in the realm of spiritual matters solid faith is even more crucial because lifes purpose and destiny hang upon the results how foolish to entrust these precious facts of life to the realm of speculation we need to be convinced that our faith is placed on solid evidence and that what we believe has indeed come from god and not from human philosophy or religious conjecture for this reason the trustworthiness of the bible as an object of faith is encouraging some portions of scripture are as much as 3500 years old and yet continue to prove true to life today they are pointedly meaningful when applied to our personal circumstances its explanations of our spiritual needs and the divine remedies to meet those needs have proven effective across the centuries faith is only as strong as the object in which it is placed we need to choose a solid founda tion upon which to build our lives so wisely lets focus on that in which we can have confi dent faith markham
