In answer to the question, What is Faith? there are thousands of responses. The Bible gives us many insights into the experience of faith, as well as examples of many faithful people. If I asked you the same question today, what would your response be?
What is faith?
Hebrews 11:1 gives us one of the clearest answers to this question. It says:
"Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen." - NRSV
Putting this into contemporary language, J. Packer writes:
“Christian hope expresses knowledge that every day of his life, and every moment beyond it, the believer can say with truth, on the basis of God's own commitment, that the best is yet to come.” - J. I. PackerLiving in Grace
