Faith is foundational. It is a gift. It' s different from other virtues. It's not opinion, suspicion, intuition, no doubt. You got it or you don't.
Abel had it; that's why his sacrifice was better. Enoch walked by faith. Noah had faith enough to trus.t God. Abraham obeyed because of faith. Sarah overcame doubts because of her faith. Isaac had a strong faith. Joseph held to his faith. The Patriarchs had faith to believe in glory. The faithful in Exodus walked with faith. Daniel closed the lion's mouth with faith. Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego had unshakable faith.
We need faith, no doubt about it. When we die, we have faith that we will meet God. When we do we won't need it. We won't have to hope or believe because God will be standing right in front of us.
All that's left is love. Just love. That's all.
