OLD TESTAMENT OF THE KING JAMES VERSION OF THE BIBLE!

Habakkuk 2:4 - Behold, his soul which is lifted up is not upright in him:  but the just shall live by his faith.

THE WORD "FAITH" APPEARS 228 TIMES IN THE NEW TESTAMENT:

IT APPEARS IN ALL BUT THREE BOOKS:  JOHN, 2 JOHN, AND 3 JOHN!

THE WORD "BELIEVE" APPEARS 269 TIMES IN THE NEW TESTAMENT;

EIGHTY SIX OF THEM APPEAR IN THE GOSPEL OF JOHN!

HERE ARE A FEW IMPORTANT EXAMPLES: 

John 3:14-17 - And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up:  that whosoever believes in Him should not perish, but have eternal life.  For God so loved the world, that He gave His Only Begotten Son, that whosoever believes in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life.  For God sent not His Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through Him might be saved.

John 20:28-29 - And Thomas answered and said unto Him, My Lord and my God.  Jesus said unto him, Thomas, because you have seen Me, you have believed:  blessed are those who have not seen, and yet have believed.

Acts 8:36-37 - And as they went on their way, they came unto a certain water:  and the eunuch said, See, here is water; what does hinder me from being  baptized?  And Philip said, If you believe with all your heart, you may.  And he answered and said, I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God.

Romans 10:9-10 - That if you shall confess with your mouth (faith in) the Lord Jesus, and shall believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you shall be saved.  For with the heart man believes unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.

1 Timothy 3:16 - And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness:  God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, and received up into glory.
Hebrews 10:39 - But we are not of them who draw back unto perdition; but of them that believe to the saving of the soul.

1 John 5:13 - These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that you may know that you have eternal life, and that you may (continue in confidence to) believe on the name of the Son of God.

FOR ISRAEL, SEEING IS BELIEVING:

FOR THE CHURCH, BELIEVING IS SEEING!
