#6. What makes faith so important?

Faith is having trust, belief, or confidence in a person or a thing. Faith is something intangible.

Without faith, what can be done? This question mostly underlines why faith is so eminent. Can we be confident without faith? Can we have a dream? Can we be saved? No!

For example, the Sawi people sacrifice their own child to maintain peace. But without faith, can the Sawi people sustain tranquility? They will not be able to escape from the ineluctable vendetta among the local tribes.

Then, Faith is what makes up hope. With hope, we are able to achieve our dream.
As a Christian, faith is everything to me. We can only be saved through Sola Fide, which means faith alone. Moral depravity is what separates us from God. But faith gives us closer to God. Hence, we are able to be saved from the penalty of sin.
