What Is Faith? A Biblical Explanation of Hebrews 11:1
Faith is a term that gets used often, but it is not always well understood. The Bible gives a clear starting point in Book of Hebrews 11:1–2, where faith is described as “the assured expectation of what is hoped for, the evident demonstration of realities that are not seen.” This definition immediately stretches beyond what modern thinking tends to accept. In a world shaped by scientific materialism, many people assume that only what is visible or measurable is real. Yet the biblical concept of faith calls us to recognize a deeper reality—one that is not always seen with the eyes but is no less certain.
