Faith

Faith is based on the evidence provided. Hebrews reminds us that we are "surrounded by a great cloud of witnesses. . . ." Thus God does not ask us to believe "blindly" without evidence or reason; He has provided the testimony of those before us as well as miracles, signs, and wonders, all of which point us to Him and testify to the authenticity of Christ's being (Son of God) and message (the Word of God).
