FAITH IS AN OUTWARD LOOK.

We are to have faith in God, and not in man. A great many people place

their faith in men, and they pin their faith to other people's

doctrines and creeds. Not long ago I heard of a man who was asked what

he believed. He said he believed what his church believed. "What does

your church believe?" "The church believes what I believe." And that

was all they could get out of him. There are a great many in that same

state of mind. They believe what the church believes, but they do not

know what the church believes. If their church teaches it, they

believe it. All the churches in the world can't save a soul. It is not

to have faith in this church or that church, this doctrine or that

doctrine, this man or that man, but it is to have faith in the man

Christ Jesus at the right hand of God. That is the only faith that

will ever save a soul.
