In this final episode on what the Bible says about various kinds of faith, Arnie and Fred begin by discussing active faith and what that entails. We discuss what Jesus said about active faith in the judgment scene recorded by Mathew in chapter 25. We move on to look at the reference to a dead faith that James makes in his extensive discussion of faith in his second chapter. He discusses the need for one's faith to be one that is working and vital. We look at what Jesus said about this in Matthew 25 again, in the judgment scene. Paul mentions an availing faith. We talk about what that means. Jesus had a discussion with Peter about his faith after Peter said he would never leave the Lord. Jesus told Peter that there would be a point very shortly that his faith would fail. We discuss this problem that so many saints have. We also note that Peter's faith later on became very strong. Faith is something that must be kept, even in times of aversity. Paul is the perfect example. Paul enjoins saints in two letters to keep the faith. We look at that guidance. Finally, it is possible to cast off one's faith. We talk about two situations that Paul records of this problem that some had. Our faith is essential to salvation.
