In faith, we need to know 3 great fundamentals. First, we absolutely need to walk towards the correct direction. If our ferventness and pursuit are in the wrong direction (Eg: righteousness that comes from law or success, merit-based, self-imposed worship, self-display of holiness or harsh treatment of body etc), we will drift further from God’s original intent (the essence of the Cross). That is a blind or distorted faith that will in turn harm our soul, our life and the people around us. Therefore, the direction of faith is definitely more crucial than the ferventness of faith. Second, the core of our faith is Jesus Christ. The faith in Christ is “a righteousness that is by faith for faith”. Hence, faith shapes the personality of Christ (has disposition, will and actions of Christ). We cannot make faith abstract or become theories. The outcome of faith is definitely a person, ie living out Christ in our respective conditions, roles, and living. More accurately, faith does not make us noble or morally upright without radiating the glorious image of Christ. For eg: a father can be very kind or a worker can be very hardworking, but he may not have the belief, heart, desire, virtues of Christ. If he only displays the virtues of men, that is not the outcome of true faith. Also, if a believer only deems faith as strength in serving, and not seeking to live out Christ in each field of daily living, his perception of faith is that of a stirring force, not life force. In Paul’s confession of faith, he always made Christ the theme, regarding Him as the standard to follow in all things (lost all things, considered them rubbish, that he may gain Christ). Therefore, losing all things and gaining Christ (knowing and living out) are complementary. Third, in the pursuit of faith, no one is perfect, even Paul who had already possessed such mature life was still pressing on to have the same mind, desire, emotions and will as Christ in all things. Therefore, we do not need to feel remorseful if we are still weak in faith, neither should we be complacent. Today, many have a sense of resistance toward learning and living out Christ, there’re even teachings that claim this being legalistic, because the glorious image of Christ is something we cannot attain. In fact, that is a statement that one may make if he compromises with his own weakness or feelings. Paul indeed taught us to imitate the perfection of Christ, but he also clearly said, the focus is not on reaching this goal, rather, it is about pressing on toward the goal of perfection. In the journey of completion of our faith, there’re many trials that the Lord has tailored for each of us, and all these will help us in the journey of faith.
