Faith in Action

11 Now faith is confidence in what we hope for^(A) and assurance about what we do not see.^(B)

⁶ And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him^(A) must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him.

²⁶ He regarded disgrace^(A) for the sake of Christ^(B) as of greater value than the treasures of Egypt, because he was looking ahead to his reward.^{(C) 27} By faith he left Egypt,^(D) not fearing the king’s anger; he persevered because he saw him who is invisible.
