Beloved, while using all diligence to write to you concerning our common salvation, I found it necessary to write to you and exhort you to earnestly contend for the faith once for all delivered to the saints. Jude 3

Until we all arrive at the oneness of the faith and of the full knowledge of the Son of God, at a full-grown man, at the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ. Eph. 4:13

In the New Testament, faith is both objective and subjective.

The objective faith refers to the subject of our believing, that is, to the things in which believe — the contents of God’s New Testament economy.

Subjective faith has to do with our action of believing, having faith in the Lord.

We need both. And we need to hold to faith with a good conscience so that we are not shipwrecked concerning faith.

Lord Jesus, we believe into You! We believe in Your economy. We want to remain in the organic union with You, holding to faith and a good conscience!
