But do you really think you have the True Faith? The 9-11 muslim terrorists also “knew” they had the “Faith”.

Likewise, how do YOU know you have the *true* faith?

I know that God has saved me because of the change that He wrought in me when I turned my life over to Him.

It’s not a matter of having the *true faith* as in believing the *correct* creeds or statements of faith of any certain denomination.

*Faith* in Scripture is defined as “the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen” not a religious denomination or religious belief system.

It depends on what your faith is in, not whether a person has it. Everyone has faith in something.

Having faith in your faith isn’t going to save anyone.

Having faith in the person of Christ is what saves because HE is the one who saves.
