Faith's Remarkable Behavior

The great chapter on faith serves to emphasize the Protestant definition of faith. The Reformers preached against any idea that any work of the flesh could produce faith or gain favor with God. But they also proclaimed that when true, saving faith was born in a soul as a result of regeneration, that person would act in line with that faith. Faith in Christ transforms the entire life, and Hebrews 11 provides a series of case studies in the effects of that transformation.
