Faith is an important part of Christianity. It's the reason why Christians follow
Jesus and do what he says, even when they can't see how it will lead to
anything good. Faith is a major theme in the Bible, from Genesis to Revelation.
But faith isn't just following orders blindly—it requires logic too! So which
one should you use? Common sense or faith? Let's discuss what the bible has to
say about this topic using scriptures from both sides of the argument as well
as your own common sense.
For example, think about the
story of Noah. Who built an ark for all the animals? It was God's idea and he
did it with his own hands! But wait—why didn't he just pick a family at random
to do this work instead of putting himself in danger by doing this job himself?
Why would anyone trust themselves to do a project like this for generations to
come? It doesn't make any sense!
On the other hand, though,
faith is what got Noah through. God told him he would be safe on the ark and so
that's where he went even when all of his friends were laughing at him. He had
faith in something bigger than himself, even when he didn't have a logical
explanation as to why.
