    With Christianity being so reasonable these days, it does not seem like Christians have enough faith to be Christians anymore.

  2. Todd Carpentier says:

    Faith not credulity

  3. Jack Johnston says:

    Wallace says believers need to be case makers. Unfortunately, the “evidence” for his case is all hearsay evidence which is hardly considered legitimate in today’s courts, so his premise fails at the outset.

  4. Billy Hughes says:

    Jim Wallace, are you a Christian? Where do you stand on Christian beliefs? Knowing where you stand will help in answering your question. ():0)

  5. Michael Moos says:

    Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.

  6. Wally Keller says:

    ADMINS – please deal with Jack Johnson. He is misusing this resource.

  7. Mark Fonner says:

    Don’t feed the Troll. Ignore it.

  8. Michael Strycula says:

    Most Christians use their brain for memorization, not deep contemplation or critical thinking. Not many are wise.

  9. Justin Bennett says:

    Trust without exact knowledge.

  10. Art Hiebert says:

    Love this, can not get enough of this.

  11. Michael Wesolek Sr. says:

    Faith is the substance. Faith is not a force like star wars.
    The big question is the object of your faith. It should be GOD and his glory, not a tool to manipulate God to get what you want

  12. Jessica Whitten Kiser says:

    “Being sure of what you hope for and certain of what you do not see” Hebrews 11:1a

  13. Beau Jestice says:

    No, it’s not supposed to be blind, but we need to understand that the opposite of faith is NOT doubt, or fear, it is certainty. If you were absolutely certain about everything, you wouldn’t need faith to go forward.

  14. Joshua Gideon says:

    Faith is to believe all of God’s scriptures for God’s complete truth in the Bible?.

  15. Kim Churchman says:

    I like Ravi Zacharias’ ministry’s name: Let My People Think

  16. Barnabas Pandit says:

    Amen we need to cultivate it by the power of word of God in Holy Spirit

  17. Wayne Capell says:

    Biblical Christianity has always been reasonable.
