Some people think that if they sincerely hope for some-thing long enough God is there-by obligated to bring it to pass because they think they have faith. Others think that if they follow the religious traditions they have been taught that they are exercising faith and thus God will bless them. However, in order to know the truth about real FAITH we must allow God Himself to define it for us. To follow human imaginations or man’s religious teachings instead of what God has told us and then expect Him to favorably bless our error is folly.
