What is faith for? Is it role just to gain the answers to God’s promises? Its greatest purpose is to lead people to eternal salvation through their relationship with God, and beyond that, help them to stand firm in their decisions, which in turn provides a life of quality.

For example, science offers several options for birth control. But then questions may arise for some religious Christians: “Where is it written in the Bible that contraceptives are allowed? Is it a sin? Can or can’t we use them?”

In the beginning of my marriage, Esther used birth control pills for almost a year. She had to stop because they made her feel ill. Because I didn’t have the option of having a vasectomy, I sacrificed: I began using condoms.

Why did I do this? I didn’t have conditions economically to have children. It was a matter of faith. I didn’t ask anybody whether it was sin or not. I simply used my own convictions to decide what to do.

Faith with intelligence leads us to strongly and firmly make decisions.

“Everything that does not come from faith is sin.” (Romans 14:23)

Make use of your faith and move forward.

God blesses those who believe!
