TRUE FAITH IN CHRIST

True faith is not merely a mental understanding of certain established facts. Modern evangelism says, "If you believe in Christ's death, burial, and resurrection as the Son of God, you are saved." But the devils believe those facts as well as you. Are they therefore saved? Certainly not. True faith is more than mere intellectual assent to the undeniable, historic facts of gospel truth. True faith is a willing approval of Christ in his true character and work. Where there is true faith in the heart, there is a willing dependence upon his substitutionary work and a willing submission to his sovereign dominion as Lord.
