Faith
Now
Faith Is The Substance - Of Things Hoped For.
The
Evidence Of Things - Not Seen.
For By It The Elders - Obtained a Good Report.
Through Faith We Understand - That The Worlds Were Framed
By The Word Of God.
So
That Things - That Are Seen Were Not Made Of Things That Do
Appear.

Faith - it is impossible to please Him for he that cometh to

For He Looked For A City - That Hath Foundations Whose
Builder and Maker Is God.
Therefore sprang there even of one and him as good as dead so
many as the stars of the sky in multitude and as the sand that
is by the sea shore innumerable.
For They That Say Such Things Declare Plainly - That
They Seek a Country.
Truly
If They Had Been Mindful Of That Country -
from whence they came out they might have had opportunity to
have returned.
Now they desire a better country that is an heavenly wherefore
God is not ashamed to be called their God for He hath prepared
for them a City.

Promises stopped the mouths of lions.

were made strong waxed valiant in flight and turned to fight
the armies of the aliens.
