To a person who knows Jesus Christ as their personal Lord and Savior, Faith which works by Love, is a natural normal way of life. A believer who does not walk the Love Walk and live by faith they are abnormal.
2nd Timothy 1: 7 For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind. (NKJV)
(Amplified Classic) [He has given us a spirit] of power and of love and of calm and well-balanced mind and discipline and self-control.
Romans 1: 17b… “THE JUST SHALL LIVE BY FAITH.” (NKJV)
Because we have been Justified by Faith (Romans 5: 1 – 2) we shall live by Faith.
Romans 5: 1 – 2 Therefore, having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, (2) through whom also we have access by faith into this grace in which we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God. (NKJV)
1st John 4: 15 – 18 Whoever confesses that Jesus is the Son of God, God abides in him, and he in God. (16) And we have known and believed the love that God has for us. God is love, and he who abides in love abides in God, and God in him. (17) Love has been perfected among us in this: that we may have boldness in the day of judgment; because as He is, so are we in this world. (18) There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear involves torment. But he who fears has not been made perfect in love. (NKJV)
To a person who does not know Jesus Christ as their personal Lord and Savior, Fear is a natural normal way of life.
1st John 4: 7 – 8 Beloved, let us love one another, for love is of God; and everyone who loves is born of God and knows God. (8) He who does not love does not know God, for God is love. (NKJV)
Jesus is the Author and Developer of our faith.
Hebrews. 12: 2 looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. (NKJV)
Satan is the Author and Developer of Fear.
Satan is Hate and Fear the way that God Is Love and Faith.
Faith is the substance of things hoped for.
Hebrews 11: 1 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. (NKJV)
Fear is the substance of things not desired.
Faith is an action word.
James 1: 22 But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves. (NKJV)
James 2: 17 Thus also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead. (NKJV)
Fear is also an action word. When you act on fear it will produce what you are fearing.
Faith acted on produces the Law of the Spirit of Life in Christ Jesus.
Fear acted on produces the law of sin and death.
