Explain seven things the Bible says about faith.
Scripture teaches great things about faith: faith unleashes the omnipotence of God; faith is the one-word summary of the Christian way of life, for 'the just shall live by faith'; faith is the foundation of our hope in Christ; faith comes through the study of the Word of God; faith alone can please God; faith is the foundation of Christian virtue, the trinity of faith, hope, and love; and faith works - its very nature is to produce works.
