Faith #4 – The Focus of Saving Faith – Jesus Christ

By: Bryan Wheeler Scripture: 2 Timothy 1:12-13; John 1:12 Series: 1689 Confession of Faith
SAVING FAITH principally points us to, and embraces Jesus Christ – 2 Timothy 1:12-13; John 1:12; Acts 15:11; 16:31; Romans 3:24-26. “A man does not possess Christ by faith in the way he possesses money in his cupboard or deeds of land, which he takes for granted that he has and yet perhaps never looks at once in a year. No; Christ is as meat that a man feeds on, chews, and digests, and whose stomach works on continually. Faith is not a sleeping thing, nor merely not doubting that Christ is mine, but a continual active whetting of my thoughts on Christ as mine. It is living on Him and in Him.” — Thomas Goodwin
