Today practically every religion is respected and approved—except religion that speaks of absolute truth and narrow roads of obedience.
These are the three dimensions to renewing your mind through faith: (1) faith has an intellectual dimension; (2) faith touches the human will profoundly; (3) faith is intimately bound to our emotions.
Because faith does not exist in a vacuum of understanding, Christians need creedal statements that summarize the connection between thinking and acting faith.
The Holy Spirit does not call us to faith in general, but to faith in particular—to faith in the person and work of Jesus Christ.
To give intellectual assent to the things of God only elevates a person from the status of pagan to the level of the demon. It advances the soul not a centimeter into the kingdom of God. Satan assents to the facts, but does not possess saving faith. The New Testament teaches that the individual must act upon the content.
