Thirsting Souls Bible Teaching

 (2Th 1:3)  “We are bound to thank God always for you, brethren, as it is meet, because that your faith groweth exceedingly, and the charity of every one of you all toward each other aboundeth;”  Your “faith” is greatly growing. Many do not understand this word, “faith”. They think it means simply acknowledging facts as being true. That’s not Bible faith. Bible faith is action based upon acknowledging facts as being true. For example – tithing. One might acknowledge it as being what God desires but does not practice it. That is not Bible faith. God expects the faith to be put into practice, believing if I practice tithing God will meet my needs despite the fact that I have ten percent less of my income. The practice, the action, is Bible faith. There is evidence of this definition in this verse. Love is being poured out of them by the Spirit of God through their obedience- – their action of faith.
