What Does the BIBLE Say About FAITH?

This TikTok video is captioned: “You either have evidence OR you have faith. You cannot have both.” On this view, faith and evidence are opposites. As the creator in the video says, “Evidence is the antithesis of faith.”

However, this is not a Christian concept. In fact, biblically informed Christians define faith as something like trusting in what you have reason to believe is true.

Even if you prove to her that Mary actually existed she will respond with something like "even if she existed, doesn't mean what was written about her is true"

I don't have the blind faith it takes to be an atheist.

“Because you have seen me, you have believed; blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed.” John 20:29

[Idaho-Cowboy]

Very true. "Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen." Hebrews 1:1. I have faith in the things I haven't seen because of the evidence I have.

He said to him, ‘If they do not hear Moses and the Prophets, neither will they be convinced if someone should rise from the dead.’

It never ceases to surprise me how snarky someone can sound while they are mocking what they don't understand and are wrong on.

[YeeticustheMighty]

'Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see.' -Hebrews 11:1. Faith is confidence and assurance based on truth, facts, and logic, not just a blind choice

[alphabeta]

Atheism actually requires more faith than Theism

[davidchapman]

It has been my experience that skeptics often demand that we furnish evidence on a level, which they know is impossible to meet, thus alleviating them from having to engage in an honest examination of the evidence that we can provide. They might say, “If you can provide Mary’s medical records, then I will believe.” Demanding an impossible standard for evidence is a means of insulating their unbelief from anything that might pose a legitimate challenge to it.

I love the way that she says if you can provide her with evidence she would believe - thus refuting her own thesis

[ricksonora]

Miss Snarky would have us believe Jesus not only didn’t have a human father, but also didn’t have a human mother! That’s an even bigger miracle than what the gospel writers claimed!

[bornagainspirit]

We don't have to choose, because we have both evidence and faith.

[BasedZoomer]

Wait.. so she's just gonna say "Mary was only 14!" And then when asked for evidence say that "Oh well, I don't need to provide any, just take my word for it and ignore historical jewish tradition, church tradition, and everything else that may indicate she was not 14"

[frankm]

First, also love your videos man. I love how these people who don't actually study the Bible or the actual historical evidence for Christianity try to pass themselves off as some sort of authority. Girl, I wouldn't give you authority over my coffee order, much less the foundational rock I will build my life on.

[MicahRachelle]

The tight rope analogy was incredible! This video explains the relationship between faith and evidence so well!👌

[BeatisMcScoots]

Those little scoffs she throws in after every sentence are just additions of icing on the cake

[peterlombard]

I recall someone once commenting that the less people know, the more stubbornly they know it and the more loudly they proclaim it. Tim nails it again in this video though I am guessing the woman still wouldn't buy it.

[childoftheking]

Love these short videos. Most people don’t have the time or attention span to watch an hour or two of great teaching. But if I send out these short clips those people just may watch them and learn as I do. Thank you so much.❤️

[PsalmOnefortyfour]

Faith NEVER goes against evidence! But often It goes BEYOND evidence. Ultimately all the evidence from the Heavens to the seasons will not bring people to Christ but a change of the wicked heart. Love the Truth...ALL the Truth.

[welredd]

Another great logical argument Mr B!

On a side not, I’m going to the Reality Apologetics conference with some friends next weekend, all thanks to being a fan of your channel. I can’t wait!
