Sense Knowledge Faith

 

For with the heart man believe unto righteousness, and with the mouth confessions is made unto salvation ( Roman 10:10 )

There is difference between sense knowledge faith and spiritual knowledge faith.

Sense Knowledge Faith 

Sense knowledge faith is the faith that you have acquired through the senses; it’s the mother of modern invention.

Most of the institution that we have today are the product of sense knowledge faith. In fact, you spent all your years in school building your faith on sense knowledge.

Sense knowledge faith is based on our observation, on what we can relate with using our senses of smell, sight, feeling, taste, and hearing. That’s why you hear people say “if I can see it, I will believe it. If I don’t see it, I will never believe”. It’s because they have built their faith with their senses over there years. But that kind of faith dependents on your physical body ; your body houses your senses

You are however, not a body; you are a spirit being. So, your senses can’t contact God. You don’t believe with your mind; you reason with your mind. Our opening verse says with the heart man believes, not with the mind. The heart is your spirit.

Being born again, God doesn’t expect you to run your life with sense knowledge faith, 2 Corinthians 5:7 says “for we walk by faith, not by sight”. Sight means sensory perception! Romans 8:13 tell us, “for if ye live after the fleshy, ye shall die: but if ye through the spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live ” the flesh refer to the senses; but you are to live by faith in God’s word

God’s faith, spiritual faith, comes from hearing through word of God. Romans 10:17 says, “so then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the words of God ” when God’s Word comes to you, faith comes with it

The word imparts faith to your spirit, that’s how come, for example, you are able to believe that Jesus Christ is the son of God, without resorting to any scientific proof. You neither had to feel that he is nor experience a visitation from an angel in the night, to know. The word says he is, you heard it, and that spiritual knowledge imparted the faith to your spirit to receive it..
