I,m not so sure that faith is not sustained at all by the senses. It was Paul who said we are without excuse, since God has revealed Himself in the things He has created. Once I was given faith I began to see the created in a way that refuted any idea that creation was a product of coincidence or evolution or that somehow a personage started it and then left it to go on it’s own.The wonder of it all. Our ability to see, hear, reason or not on this blog for instances.Is this faith? or fact? When Jesus said He would return and He does,much of this will be silenced. Including me. What changed my disbelief into faith? Have I lost my senses?

Brian, I agree completely.. it seems that when I do hear the Lord speaking to my life it isn’t usually the topic I am specifically seeking Him on. His ways are not my ways… He always knows what is best. Taste and See.. indeed!

Although it may be agreed that “Gnosticism” is a name later given to a general, multifaceted movement that became more prominent during the infancy of Christianity, but which grew out of a rich milieu of philosophical development.

Jake, faith is not belief in the complete absence of evidence. That’s called “blind faith,” with the adjective added for a reason. Nobody should act on blind faith.
