Have I the right kind of faith? This question is raised in many believers' minds and often occasions deep distress.
Now what is the right kind of telescope to use, do you think? Surely the one with which you can see best. The telescope which most clearly brings before you the object gazed at, is the most suitable instrument to use.
A proper telescope is not purchased to be looked at, but to look through.
Faith is for looking at Christ. And if your faith brings Him and His atoning death clearly into view, your faith is good faith. It is the right faith, if it shows the right Savior.
Wrong faith—if we may call it so? is that which leads a sinner to be occupied with himself instead of with the Son of God.
Right faith sees the right object, and produces the right result.
"Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and thou shalt be saved." Acts 16:3030And brought them out, and said, Sirs, what must I do to be saved? (Acts 16:30).
