The faith that works and that’s EFFECTUAL (effective & efficient) is the FAITH that substantiates in HOPE. Hence communicate your faith in hope.
SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:
“Now FAITH is the SUBSTANCE of things HOPED for, the evidence of things not seen” Hebrews 11:1.
“Therefore being JUSTIFIED BY FAITH, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: 2 by whom also we have ACCESS BY FAITH into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God . . . 5 and HOPE maketh not ASHAMED; because the LOVE of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us” Romans 5:1-5.
“I thank my God, making mention of thee always in my prayers, 5 hearing of thy LOVE and FAITH, which thou hast toward the Lord Jesus, and toward all saints; 6 that the COMMUNICATION of thy FAITH may become EFFECTUAL by the acknowledging of every good thing which is in you in Christ Jesus” Philemon 4-6.
