"for we walk by faith, not by sight." 2 Corinthianis 5:7
What is faith? Here's the definition in six translations.
"Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen." KJV and NKJV
"Faith is the confidence that what we hope for will actually happen; it gives us assurance about things we cannot see." New Living Translation
"Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see." NIV
"Now faith is the assurance (the confirmation, the title deed) of the things [we] hope for, being the proof of things [we] do not see and the conviction of their reality [faith perceiving as real fact what is not revealed to the senses]." Amplified Version
"Faith makes us sure of what we hope for and gives us proof of what we cannot see." Contemporary English Version
"Faith means being sure of the things we hope for and knowing that something is real even if we do not see it." New Century Version
If I were to ask you to prove to me you have faith, could you prove it? I'm not asking if you believe in God; I'm asking for proof of your faith. Think about it and leave me your answer in the comment box.
